Subject: [LARTC] burst per connection or filter on packet numbers

Hi!

I'd like put the first n packets of a connection into a seperate class
like having a burst for each connection.

The netfilter nth patch doesn't quite do this as it
a. only matches a single packet count and
b. works on the rule instead the connection count.

I'm thinking of something like:
  iptables -t mangle -I foo -m nth --every :100 -j ...
where the counter is reset for every new connection.

Can this be done with filters?
Any hints are appreciated!

Thanks,
Walter
