The situation is as follows:
We have a couple of FreeBSD routers, with RFC1918 addresses on the
ethernets and a public address on the loopback. This works fine for
connecting to the routers, but is problematic for locally originated
outgoing traffic (think NTP, think syslog): it takes the IP address
of the outgoing interface, which is the RFC1918 address.
Is there a way (sysctl, kernel option) to define which IP address
is used for locally originated outgoing traffic?
One way is to run your daemon (ntpd, syslogd etc) within a jail, and give
the jail your public loopback as its IP address.
I'm surely going to try this and see if it works.
