Using netfilter to write an intermediate network driver

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

 



I am new to this listserver and netfilter so my apologies for stupid questions.

I am porting a driver from Windows to Linux. The driver adds a
security layer just above the adapter driver and below all other
layers such as TCP/IP etc. The driver has the need intercept packets,
create new packets, and forward those new packets to the layer above
and back down through another adapter (acting as a bridge). From what
I have been reading, netfilter supplies hooks that look promising.
Does anyone know if netfilter supplies enough functionality for this
scenario?
