[Cake] Cake on elements of a bridge

[Georgios Amanakis]

Awesome, thanks to both of you!
I am aware of the uselessness of nat (in terms of cake) in this setup. It's
good to know what Sebastian pointed out. I ran it for a couple of hours and
it seems to be working fine. I am going to finalize the setup and will get
back to you.

Well, you wouldn't get much benefit from the nat feature, as the machine
running CAKE would not be the one doing the nat'ing. But other than
that, it should work fine :)
