DNAT/SNAT syntax

[Sylvain GIL]

Hi,

Is there a good reason that leads to not beeing able to use CIDR
addresses representation in the --to part of a NAT rule ?

The following doesn't work:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j DNAT --to 195.10.10.0/24

The following works:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j DNAT --to \
				                   195.10.10.0-195.10.10.255

It's getting very funny when your are trying to do static NAT rules
since -s doesn't accept 195.10.10.0-195.10.10.255 but only CIDR :)

regards,
