the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the virtual BITW device to:
receive, via the second interface, the second packets;
modify the source IP address of the second packets to be the private IP address of the first interface of the virtual BITW device;
apply, using the fast path, the packet-filtering logic to the second packets; and
