conntrack and connmark

[Eicke Friedrich]

Hi folks,

I've a very simple question about connmark. I hope you can help me 
here. I'm running a linux ethernet bridge with netfilter support. 
There are two ports in this bridge (eth0 and eth1).
If I mark a packet with connmark that leaves the bridge at eth0 for 
example will a packet belonging to the same connection but in the 
other direction (so leaving th bridge ar eth1) also be marked with the 
same mark?
Or to put in short words: will connmark just work for one direction or 
for both?

Thanks for any comments!
Eicke.
