Or the pkts will match unexpected rules. For example, with following topology and commands: ----------- | veth0 -+------- | veth1 -+------- | ------------ tc qdisc add dev veth0 clsact # The same with "action mirred egress mirror dev veth1" or "action mirred ingress redirect dev veth1" tc filter add dev veth0 egress chain 1 protocol ip flower ct_state +trk action mirred ingress mirror dev veth1 tc filter add dev veth0 egress chain 0 protocol ip flower ct_state -inv action ct commit action goto chain 1 tc qdisc add dev veth1 clsact tc filter add dev veth1 ingress chain 0 protocol ip flower ct_state +trk action drop ping <remove ip via veth0> & tc -s filter show dev veth1 ingress With command 'tc -s filter show', we can find the pkts were dropped on veth1.
