Hi all ,
xt_time module is not handling DST . So i am writing a
userspace application to handle time based pkt filtering by queuing
pkts to userspace using NFQUEUE target .
There are some concerns and doubts
1 ) All packets will be copied to userspace , one pkt at a time ,
based on the iptables rule . But , if i use any system call in my user
space application before reinjecting the pkt back to kernel , will it
severely dampen the network throughput ?
2) Creating /proc entries and passing DST values to kernel and Handle
Time by xt_time module will be a better solution ?
Thanks,
Ratheesh
