	// Failed to resolve, skip DNAT but still proxy the packet
	logger.Debug("Failed to resolve rewrite address: %v", err)
	pkb := stack.NewPacketBuffer(stack.PacketBufferOptions{
	Payload: buffer.MakeWithData(packet),
	})

	return true
	}

Hey the above code attempt to resolve the rewrite address either using the ip/cidr notation or by performing a DNS lookup. If parsing fails or dns fails we still relay the packet to the VIP?

Im looking at adding an internal DNS cache since every new connection will perform a dns lookup which adds latency to every request (until a net state is created) which we can perform the lookup for a user, then cache for a TTL.

However, it seems that forwarding even if resolution fails is not correct behavior, asking in case it was intentional?
