+uredir (userspace UDP port redirector)
+
+uredir is a small tool to redirect UDP traffic. It can be used as a
+poor man's filtering tool, e.g. for small multihomed embedded systems
+without a built-in firewall.
+
+uredir forwards packets to a specified destination, remembering the
+sender's address. Any packets received from the destination are in
+turn forwarded to the sender.
+
+uredir can be run standalone or via inetd. See uredir's man page for
+details.
