I have used FreeBSD's Netgraph to successfully develop a unique link-level protocol. I would like to do a similar thing in Linux and would like to do the initial implementation in userland. I use Ethernet packets on a LAN and embed the protocol inside them. I have to modify outgoing packets and strip out header/trailers from incoming packets. IP frames need to be passed-up the stack. Would Netfilter be the best way to approach this? If not, what other LINUX tools make sense\? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. -- Len -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
