Hello,
I'm trying to mark UDP packets entering (or leaving) a bridge, destined to a
particular UDP port on a machine on the other side of the bridge.
My simple topology looks like:
host1 [eth1] <-----> [s1-eth1] bridge [s1-eth2] <-----> [eth1] host2
I've added a rule to the FORWARD chain on the mangle table in the bridge to mark
the packets that I require:
$ sudo iptables -t mangle -A FORWARD -p udp --dport 9917 -j MARK --set-mark 17
$ iptables -L FORWARD -t mangle -v
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
0 0 MARK udp -- any any anywhere anywhere udp
dpt:9917 MARK set 0x11
But, looks like none of packets are being marked (counters are all 0s in
iptables output as shown above). I have traffic matching the above rule flowing
through the bridge which I verified using tcpdump.
$ sudo tcpdump -i s1-eth1 udp dst port 9917
...
11:22:14.774417 IP 10.0.0.2.49774 > 10.0.0.1.9917: UDP, length 1470
11:22:14.774597 IP 10.0.0.2.49774 > 10.0.0.1.9917: UDP, length 1470
11:22:14.774731 IP 10.0.0.2.49774 > 10.0.0.1.9917: UDP, length 1470^C
999 packets captured
1831 packets received by filter
795 packets dropped by kernel
I'm not sure what's wrong with my configuration. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
/Aravind
