redirect local requests to ip to other ip (linux - e.g. debian >= 10)

Question

I want to all request to a certain IP:port on the machine A its self (for a current or rather 10/11/12) to another IP = machine B so that requests from processes on machine A are forwarded to machine B with IP B.

Machine A can reach the network of machine B and the other way round (ip a on machine A:

2: eno1: ...
inet X.Y.52.60/24 brd X.Y.52.255 scope global eno1
   valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet X.Z.52.16/24 brd X.Z.52.255 scope global eno1:1

I have tried diffeent approaches:

• nftables

      chain postrouting {
              type nat hook postrouting priority 100; policy accept;
              masquerade
      }
  chain prerouting {
          type nat hook prerouting priority -100; policy accept;
          ip daddr X.Y.52.69 tcp dnat to X.Z.10.99
  }

• route add -net X.Y.52.60/32 gw X.Z.10.99 with sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=(which should redirect all ports)
  (* iptables - as there a lot of all manuals about this and command should be passed to the nftables wrapper. I did: iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -d X.Y.52.69 -p tcp --dport 31000 -j DNAT --to-destination X.Z.10.99 )

As far I know handling with socator ssh is not possible

With the firewall approach redirection seam to work nut nmap report filtered port. With routeI got SIOCADDRT: Invalid argument.

Which one is the best approach and how does it actually work on current Linux systems?
