Hi Mike,
Now I need to connect eth2 directly to a (non-standard) device (don't
ask :) that will take care of the broadcasts, but they must be
untagged. So I was hoping to create a rule that would essentially
direct the outgoing VLAN-tagged broadcasts to the native VLAN
(untagged).
As I mentioned before: (AFAIK) the switch WILL remove the VLAN tag on an
Access Port...
If I understand you right you want to send ALL broadcast packets to this
device...
If so then maybe you need the TEE target in the iptables/netfilter
framework...
Jan Engelhardt can help you with that... :D
I would:
- set up a new VLAN (2051),
- put the other side (this non-standard device) on an Access Port,
- copy (with TEE) the traffic to this new VLAN...
(Or just forget the first two steps and use an other ethernet interface
and a cross-link cable :D )
Hope that helps. :D
