I donnot understant those > params like prio 10, u32, match u16 0x0000 0xffc0, etc ! This is the only documentation I have been able to track down in my travels about the u32 classifier[1]. I don't know why there's an 0xff after match 'ip protocol 6'. You get the same thing for '[d|s]port 53 0xff' matches, too. I think those keywords are syntactic sugar.
