Okay, misc: As near as I can tell (been talking with Alexey offlist), one of the things he wants is to get an OpenBSD router to not decrement the TTL for packets that it is forwarding. That behavior seems to me to be against RFCs, but I'll ask on the off chance that it's there: is there an option in OpenBSD - config option, sysctl, or other - to tell the kernel to not decrement the TTL on forwarded packets?
The other question Alexey was asking; is it possible to do NAT on a transparent bridge? Archives suggest that the answer is "no", that NAT needs an address on both interfaces to operate (making the bridge non-transparent) but I again ask the question on the off chance that there's some magical packet-mangling fuckery that OpenBSD is capable of and that neither I nor Google was previously aware of. I will post updates as I have them. English isn't his first language and Russian isn't mine, so I'm kind of stumbling in the conversation, but I think I have the gist of it okay.
