what to do when the peers use different IPs to transmit and receive

[Raffaele Spazzoli]

Ivan,

sorry for the formatting, it seemed right on my email editor (gmail).
I cannot do SNAT at the source because the packet would be dropped if it
didn't come from the actual IP of the VM.
So I am doing SNAT at the destination. why do you say I am doing it wrong?
I know it would be ideal to do it at the source, but should it work when
done at the destination?

Thanks,
Raffaele
