IPv4 iptables allows to REDIRECT/DNAT/SNAT any traffic over a bridge.
e.g. REDIRECT
$ sysctl -w net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables=1
$ iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 8080 \
-j REDIRECT --to-ports 81
This does not work with ip6tables on a bridge in NAT66 scenario
because the REDIRECT/DNAT/SNAT is not correctly detected.
The bridge pre-routing (finish) netfilter hook has to check for a possible
redirect and then fix the destination mac address. This allows to use the
ip6tables rules for local REDIRECT/DNAT/SNAT REDIRECT similar to the IPv4
iptables version.
e.g. REDIRECT
$ sysctl -w net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables=1
$ ip6tables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 8080 \
-j REDIRECT --to-ports 81
This patch makes it possible to use IPv6 NAT66 on a bridge. It was tested
on a bridge with two interfaces using SNAT/DNAT NAT66 rules.
