Does anyone have an idea how > to change the source address based on destination address? >=20 If all of these possible source addresses belong to the same interface of the box in question (it's unclear from your message), this can be done with route(8). For example: # ifconfig rl0 inet rl0: flags=3D8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.4.115 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.4.255 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 10.255.255.255 inet 10.0.0.2 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 10.0.0.2 # route add -net 11 10.0.0.3 add net 11: gateway 10.0.0.3 # route add -net 12 -ifa 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.4 add net 12: gateway 10.0.0.4 The route to the network 12 says to use 10.0.0.2 as the source address when sending anonymous (with unfilled source address) datagrams. But if you need to change the traffic originated from other hosts on your box, there are several NAT solutions for you.
