I want to forward all data outgoing to a server say (25.25.25.25) to my local server (192.168.1.100). I know I can set the subnet to a 25.25... but I want to keep all intact and just forward them.

What I'm trying to do:
A machine needs to send & receive logs every 24 hours to a server outside, running on ip 25.25.25.25. I don't want this server receiving those logs, but I want them forwarded to my server (which is running the exact same program).

How would I be able to do this without creating a subnet that makes the IP on my server be 25.25.25.25?

instead of using the router you could just use the hosts file in windows I have done this before with program like arcgis


C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

add a line like
192.168.1.100 25.25.25.25

I was thinking about this method. I also use a Microsoft Loopback adapter that uses the ip of 25.25.25.25. So I don't think it might work.
