No, forward is an internal forward. It does not leave the JVM. In fact, it doesn't leave the servlet context.

OK, I have a question for all the Tomcat gurus out there.

Here is my scenario:
        * tomcat machine is behind NAT
        * internal ip address is 2.2.2.2 (ip changed to protect the
innocent!)
        * external ip is 3.3.3.3
        * client accesses servlet with ip 3.3.3.3.
                * inside servlet we call RequestDispatcher rd =
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher( "/another_page.jsp" );
                * then we call rd.forward( orig_request, response );

My question is, is that forward call a full http request? If so, what ip
address will it use? I "think" that it is trying to use the 3.3.3.3 address
and the NAT doesn't like it.

Thoughts?
