iptables is the network packet filter and inspection interface for
Linux kernels 2.4 and later. IP Masquerading is one function among a
great many of iptables. No special tool is needed to do masquerading:
# iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE
is all that should be necessary for a dial-up connection, for example.
Note that masquerading is only necessary with a
dynamically-allocated IP address on the external interface. With a
fixed (or at least known) IP address, SNAT should be used.
