You haven't done a search on past posts... the u32 can be used to match any bit in the ip header. Before the ip header, there is a frame header. In that frame header you can find the src and dst mac address. You can trick the u32 filter in using the frame header if you use negative offsets. Decimal Offset Description -14: DST MAC, 6 bytes -8: SRC MAC, 6 bytes -2: Eth PROTO, 2 bytes, eg. ETH_P_IP 0: Protocol header (IP Header) Where PPPP is the Eth Proto Code (from linux/include/linux/if_ether.h): ETH_P_IP= IP = match u16 0x0800 Where your MAC = M0M1M2M3M4M5 Egress (match Dst MAC): ... match u16 0xPPPP 0xFFFF at -2 match u32 0xM2M3M4M5 0xFFFFFFFF at -12 match u16 0xM0M1 0xFFFF at -14 Ingress (match Src MAC): ... match u16 0xPPPP 0xFFFF at -2 match u16 0xM4M5 0xFFFF at -4 match u32 0xM0M1M2M3 0xFFFFFFFF at -8 The below is simplistic but it works to demonstrate the above. tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root handle 1:0 htb default 20 tc class add dev ppp0 parent 1:0 classid 1:1 htb rate 128kbit ceil 128kbit tc class add dev ppp0 parent 1:1 classid 1:10 htb rate 64kbit ceil 128kbit tc class add dev ppp0 parent 1:1 classid 1:20 htb rate 64kbit ceil 128kbit tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 1:10 handle 100: sfq perturb 10 tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 1:20 handle 200: sfq perturb 10 # My Laptop tc filter add dev ppp0 parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 1 u32 match u16 0x0800 0xFFFF at -2 match u16 0xM4M5 0xFFFF at -4 match u32 0xM0M1M2M3 0xFFFFFFFF at -8 flowid 1:10 # My Desktop tc filter add dev ppp0 parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 1 u32 match u16 0x0800 0xFFFF at -2 match u16 0xM4M5 0xFFFF at -4 match u32 0xM0M1M2M3 0xFFFFFFFF at -8 flowid 1:20 # change the MAC's of course. tc -s -d class show dev ppp0 tc -s -d qdisc show dev ppp0 tc -s -d filter show dev ppp0 There you have it. :L _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
