I am using iptables, currently as a NAT firewall but it will become a bridge firewall when I have it working correctly.
I have two simple rules for marking right now:
iptables -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -s $LAN -t mangle -j MARK --set-mark 1 iptables -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -t mangle -j MARK --set-mark 2
$LAN is defined to be "192.168.0.0/24"
Now.. I found a bit in the list archives about mangling with NAT.. so I am wondering if the source address is wrong. But shouldn't PREROUTING happen before the NAT takes place?
My end goal is to have a mangle line for each of the half a dozen source addresses. For example:
192.168.0.5 - mark as '2'
192.168.0.6 - mark as '3'
192.168.0.7 - mark as '4'
192.168.0.8 - mark as '5'
192.168.0.9 - mark as '6'
192.168.0.10 - mark as '7'
And all other source addresses should be marked as '1'.
I was thinking that I could do something like: iptables -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.0.5 -t mangle -j MARK --set-mark 2
But that isn't working for me.
