There was a related bug for the handbook: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D44443 Having that patch in the handbook would have also saved me the surprise, as= man ppp basically suggests that the NAT functionality is disabled by default, b= ut starting ppp with rc.conf contradicts that. I would think mentioning this behaviour with a hint to man rc.conf would be enough, this can be done under: NETWORK ADDRESS TRANSLATION (PACKET ALIASING) But would also be useful on the second paragraph of the description, where = the -nat flag is introduced. I am willing to propose a patch for this and to re-open 44443 and propose a patch for it too if this approach were acceptable. FTR, this is what I was working on when I discovered this issue and would re-use bits of it as real-life examples of using ppp(oe) on FreeBSD. https://evilham.com/en/blog/2019-FreeBSD-eXO-router/#pppoe https://evilham.com/en/blog/2020-FreeBSD-home-router-legacy-ipv4/#local-leg= acy-ipv4-networking-nat-implementing (as of this bug report these are quite advanced drafts but require more editing) --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
