[nos-bbs] JNOS routing to TUN0

[Mark Phillips]

Did you publish your arp?

On the Linux box you have to get it to respond to calls addressed to
your JNOS virtual box.

What will then happen is that when calls from your JNOS box to your lan
go out the lan device will ask for the hardware address of the JNOS box.
You linux box will offer up its own address and thus the packet flows.
