With the old nth module, you could specify the counter used. There doesn't
seem to be this option with the new statistic module.
Does it have only 1 counter? If not how does it work out which counter is
used?
For example i have a number of places in my rules where i want to make a
decision based on the load. These places are in the shape of a simple tree,
each branch should have its own counter along the lines of
iptables -A -m statistic --mode nth --every 2 --packet 0 -j BRANCH1
iptables -A -m statistic --mode nth --every 2 --packet 2 -j BRANCH2
iptables -A BRANCH1 -m statistic --mode nth --every 2 --packet 0 -j
DO_SOMETHING_1
iptables -A BRANCH1 -m statistic --mode nth --every 2 --packet 1 -j
DO_SOMETHING_2
iptables -A BRANCH2 -m statistic --mode nth --every 2 --packet 0 -j
DO_SOMETHING_3
iptables -A BRANCH2 -m statistic --mode nth --every 2 --packet 1 -j
DO_SOMETHING_4
Thanks
