protocol handler

Hi all,

I have a question regarding the packet_type for
protocol supported by a machine.
My understanding is that in function net_rx_action it
checks for the protocol of the incoming packet and
sends the packet to the input function specified in
the packet_type (ip_rcv for ipv4).

Is there anything else that you need to specify/set ?
Bcoz in my case even though the value of the function
pointer is correct the function I want is never being
called (i want it to call ip_rcv for a different
protocol , I have removed the packet_type for that
protocol and  added a new one which points to ip_rcv)

please advise,

thanks in advance,

rgds
Amit
