Hi all,

I would like to ask if there are any plans to make the firmware together with ebtables support for the kernel?

I have the following situation: I want all the LAN ports and a WAN port to be in a bridge thus I'm able to communicate with the LAN connected to the WAN port. What is more, I need to NAT 192.168.1.x private addresses to an external IP which then is also routed through the same LAN.

I tried to play with proxy arp on br0 and eth1, but I realized that this way I could not receive any broadcast packets from LAN (that which is connected to WAN port), so IMHO ebtables (a kernel patch actually) would be the only way to do the NAT inside the bridge.

Any thoughts are appreciated
