Since all of the manpages use IP addresses, I'm guessing not; you're
likely to be able to get the same effect with using the IP of the
interface intstead of its name. Unless you're mistaken on what
rdr-to does, as this isn't the first time someone appears to have
been under the impression that rdr-to sort of just "poured" the
traffic onto another network.

rdr-to won't do this, but dup-to may do what you're looking for; however,
it's much more likely that you need to read the section on tables in
the pf.conf man page.

Yes, hence the "duplicate" root for "dup-to".
