If you want to limit it, you have to add optional rule parameters to the masquerade yourself. Keep in mind though that inface matches are not possible there.

<div><br></div><div>But in my situation, I may not be able to use them. The reason is, the MAC address that’s matched is the one after routing has occurred.

<div><br></div><div>It would be great if you could match by source or destination IP, MAC address or ports either before or after routing has occurred. Earlier this year, I had to stop using NAT on my firewall/router in order for IP based classification to work right, then add a static route on my ADSL modem for the return traffic. This is working, but it doesn’t help when trying to classify traffic by MAC address.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The only other way I can think to do this is to shape on the internal interface, eth0.

Once I removed those “router4” rules, which I only need in a limited case anyway, everything was fine again. Is this a bug, or do I not understand something? (We can start a separate thread on this if that’s better).</div>

<br>
I’m interested in this because we’ll be transitioning to a dual-stack network with both IPv4 and IPv6 support. Currently, we assign IPv4 addresses using DHCP (some are assigned fixed addresses, and others put into different pools), then in fireqos.conf classify using “match src” and “match dst” rules with IP addresses. I know this isn’t bulletproof, but since I control all of the hosts, it works. With IPv6, we'll get a /64 address from our ISP, which can’t be subnetted further, and I suppose we’ll be using SLAAC instead of DHCP (haven’t sorted that out yet). So, the only way I can think of to do traffic classification on a per-host basis is using the MAC address.<br>
<br>
Anything I’m missing?<br>
