This patch adds the PKTTYPE target which can be used to mangle the skbuff packet type field. This target is useful in conjunction with the arptables mcmangle target to TCP working again when a multicast hardware address is used. An example of its use: iptables -I PREROUTING ! -s 224.0.0.0/4 -t mangle \ -j PKTTYPE --to-pkt-type unicast Given the following arptables rule-set: arptables -I OUTPUT -o eth0 -j mcmangle --h-length 6 \ --mc-mangle-mac 01:00:5e:00:01:01 --mc-mangle-dev eth0 arptables -I INPUT --h-length 6 --destination-mac 01:00:5e:00:01:01 \ -j mangle --mangle-mac-d 00:zz:yy:xx:5a:27 See arptables mcmangle target for further information.
That one refers to this patch :) So you're actually communicating using TCP and multicast? Why don't you use UDP, which works fine using multicast without pkttype mangling? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
