Hi Kim,
thanks for the answer.
At the moment I have a test network where I send traffic from host A to host B generating it with a proper traffic generator (for example MGEN), which allows also to set the DS (or IP TOS) field.
Does iptables understand the value set before with the traffic generator or I have to set the field with the mangle table?
What I was thinking to type to discriminate the output interface was:
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -m tos --tos TOS -o INTERFACE -j ACCEPT
With TOS equal to the value set by the traffic generator. Would it work?
Simone.
