Hi,

I am using nat46 kernel module with kernel version-5.4.91.

I have a use-case where nat46 translations will be done on Docker Container. ( Privileged container having full access to kernel).
But management file of the NAT46 is missing in docker container.
Loading and unloading of nat46.ko doesnt make any effect.

Setup : HostOS and docker container are running on OpenWrt.

root@OpenWrt:/etc# lsmod | grep nat46
nat46 36864 0
root@OpenWrt:/etc#
root@OpenWrt:/etc# ls -lrt /proc/net/nat46
ls: /proc/net/nat46: No such file or directory
root@OpenWrt:/etc#

PS: I can see and control /proc/net/nat46/control on host OS. But thats not the use case.

nat46 does not have any knowledge about docker.You will need to investigate how to configure the docker container such that it could see the /proc/net/nat46 interface.
