How to Mangle NATted Traffic
General Information
Summary
Mangle is a kind of 'marker' to mark packets for future processing. Many other facilities in
RouterOS make use of these marks, e.g. queue trees and NAT. In general mangle marks exist only
within the router, they are not transmitted across the network.
Two special cases when mangle alters actual packets are MSS and TOS fields of an IP packet
changing.
