人間喜劇


(《人間喜劇》是第一次體會到什麼完全無深度的快感——並在離場後不斷想起夏宇的詩〈bad trip〉:

How OpenBSD's pf source-hash maps internal IPs to NAT pool IPs

OpenBSD's pf packet filter has a feature where you can NAT yourinternal IP addresses to a pool of gateway IP addresses, wherethe pool is specified as a CIDR netblock. The pf.conf manpage describes thevarious options one has for how this happens. If you need a randomlydistributed but consistent mapping, source-hash is what you want.
