However, the manual says that divert, forward and reject do not work with bridging.(Throught the box, not to-from it) Testing this, the divert socket does count packets coming through it. They are never delivered and the socket cannot open at the application end. Does anybody know "why this is so ?" and if it is something that is going to be changed/fixed in the near future? Thanks in advance. -- Darian...
