-If the above steps still do not work and a different source IP address is seen for the Shim tunnel use iptables to create a SNAT.
+In the very unlikely scenario the above steps dont work and the desired source IP is not seen on the outgoing packets, use SNAT (Source NAT).This example NATs the source IP for udp packets to 5111 (custom netflow)  to be the Shim end point.
