[LARTC] how to log pacets which hit routing rules?

[Jan Macek]

Hi,

Is there some way to make iproute2 log to syslog or to a file selected
packets?

I have a problem, that my packets dissapear somewhere, and I want to be
sure if they get to the routing stage or not, and where do they get
routed.

use the iptables or ipchains with --log switch

iptables does not have a --log switch.  You must use the '-j LOG' target
instead.

I know that, but I did not mean that.

I want to log packets _at_the_roting_stage_, not at the filtering or NAT
stage.
