Kernel. Org.

I want the data to actually go through the cable and I don't want internal logic to bypass this process. There is only one interface available, so I can't use swapped routing as explained here: http://www.tux.org/hypermail/linux-kernel/1999week21/0294.html. I'm not sure if this is kernel specific or if some commands may override default routing behavior. Any ideas?
