freebsd-ipfw,                            Wednesday, December 08, 1999

Hi all! I have a question about some observed behaviour of ipfw and
I'd like to ask you all if it's right, proper, expected, etc. and why
since the man-page seems to indicate otherwise.
According to the ipfw man page:
"...
 divert port       Divert packets that match this rule to the di-
                   vert(4) socket bound to port port. The search ter-
                   minates.
...
     If a packet matches more than one divert and/or tee rule, all but the
     last are ignored.
..."
However when playing with divert rules on my natd box whenever I had
more than one divert rule -each- rule would be triggered. The effect
this had was to have multiple replies sent to any request the inside
boxes made. Is this the expected behaviour? (Doesn't seem that way to
me...) The divert rules were all together if that has anything to do
with it.
