Hello,

I am looking for a NAT solution for Solaris 8 that is equivalent to
what the OUTPUT section of iptables provides for Linux. My goal is to
trick some network monitoring applications on a Solaris server into
thinking that they have local access NATed devices that sit on provate
networks. To do this, I need to be able to NAT the destination
address on packets that this application generates from the true
private address to the routable NAT address before it leaves the
server itself.

Everything I have read has pointed to IPFilter as the NAT solution of
choice for Solaris but I do not see how I can create the traffic flow
I am looking for. If IPFilter can do this for me, how do I configure
it properly?

Sorry but I do not know exactly what you want to do with NAT?

Do you only want to let the router perform NAT/NATP for you or ?

What means that you want to "trick some network monitoring applications"?
