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
