> what kind of network device does sshuttle create?
Apparently, sshuttle does not create a network device. It just manipulates some
NAT rules with iptables. Here is the log output of sshuttle's iptables (instead
of X.X.X.X the IP of my ssh server appears):
>> iptables -t nat -N sshuttle-12300
>> iptables -t nat -F sshuttle-12300
>> iptables -t nat -I OUTPUT 1 -j sshuttle-12300
>> iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING 1 -j sshuttle-12300
>> iptables -t nat -A sshuttle-12300 -j RETURN --dest 127.0.0.0/8 -p tcp
>> iptables -t nat -A sshuttle-12300 -j REDIRECT --dest 0.0.0.0/0 -p tcp --to-ports 12300 -m ttl ! --ttl 42
>> iptables -t nat -A sshuttle-12300 -j REDIRECT --dest X.X.X.X/32 -p udp --dport 53 --to-ports 12300 -m ttl ! --ttl 42


> how does the network setup look afterwards?
Sorry, I don't really understand that question.
The network setup is simple. One client machine (tested with wlan and ethernet
connection of my laptop and a KVM machine) and a ssh server (tested via NAT and
on the local network).
