Re: [FW-1] NAT first or Route first?



Hi,

the routing and the arp are the reason why Checkpoint needs to mention that
routing is done before NATing at all. In fact you can do routing before
NATing __IF__ you have a static NAT entry which looks like this
routed add IP_NATed gw IP_original
So that every packet destined to your NATed host gets routed (by the OS) to
the right Interface / Subnet first.

Subject: [FW-1] NAT first or Route first?

Question for the masses:  On FW-1 v4.1, running on Windows NT 4.0, which
gets done first: NAT or OS routing?  I can't see how you can do routing
first (since the source or destination of the packet may change during
NAT),
but I have an odd situation on my hands suggesting that the NAT is being
done afterwards.

Any insight would be appreciated...
