Subject: [RFC 05/12] fwd: Check all configured addresses in guest accessibility functions
Date: Sun, 14 Dec 2025 20:54:34 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251215015441.887736-6-jmaloy@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251215015441.887736-1-jmaloy@redhat.com>
We update fwd_guest_accessible4() and fwd_guest_accessible6() to check
against all addresses in the addrs[] array, not just addrs[0].
This ensures that when multiple addresses are configured via -a options,
traffic using any of them is correctly identified as guest traffic for
NAT and forwarding decisions.
