Is there any reason to prefer port-forwarding with ipfw (forward ipaddr) vs.
natd (-redirect_port), if I am using both subsystems in any case? I see natd
uses libalias and an ipfw divert port, so my thought is that the ipfw approach
would incur less overhead. Also, the ipfw approach permits a hostname for
resolving where natd requires an IP address.
they do different things
NAT changes the packets while fwd leaves them alone but just changes
where they are delivered.
which you use depends on what you are trying to do.
Thank you.
