Filtering MAC adresses and Multicast

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello all,

I have a strange problem using iptables that had been reported yet in this list two years ago, but it has not been solved: http://lists.netfilter.org/pipermail/netfilter/2004-October/056506.html

I emulate a MANET on a Ethernet by adding iptables rules like these:

/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -m mac --mac-source 00:06:5B:12:C9:7A -j DROP
/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -m mac --mac-source 00:06:5B:13:4A:69 -j DROP


These rules drop Unicast traffic but they do not drop Multicast traffic.
Anyone has a idea what happens?

Thank you in advance
Kind regards,
Gerard
