Thank you Damjan,
The my-forwarder plugin performs  l3 lookup  (3D array - on some bytes of
the dest-IP (v6) and  decides about the output interface.
then sends to interface-output node - this works perfectly (with static
arp/ndp installed in the dest/source machines) when dest-ip and src-ip are
in the same subnet.
i need a solution for:
 - not in the same subnet
- ARP/NDP responder  - i will cancel the static ARP/NDP

please tell me if you need more details.
Regards
-Sara
