I have just re-read the man page, and found the following:
"The  target  may  be  a  decimal  port  number  designating the 
physical port on which to  output the packet."

so the packet should, according to the above, be forwarded to port 7, 
which is vnet0.

However, the packet is not arriving on vnet0.  Any ideas where I can 
look to find out why not?

Thanks
Chris
