[LARTC] u32: how to say "all except z.x.y"?

[ray-nger]

Hello lartc,
Q1:

If I want select subhet, I wrote
...u32 match ip  dst a.d.r.es/net police ...
How I can say "all except z.x.y" ?
Both src/dest addr/port - I foundn't this info in HOWTO :(((

Q2:
Why I can't (or not allowed) to create more then one class into
!ingress! queue? I know, it's incoming trafic? but why?
it's look simply: (yes, i may be wrong:)
If first incomng packet owerlimit own filtered class - then drop, else
pass...

Why it's hardly then outgoing (drop only!!)?
or, if it's possible - give a sample, please.

Thanks!

Use 2 filters :
1. all z.x.y to a class
2. all to an other class
so the second filter matches all except x.y.z

It's not possible.  The ingress qdisc is not a real qdisc.  All egress qdiscs 
like htb/cbq/sfq are changing the queue of packets that leaves a nic.  But 
for incoming there is no queue that you can change.  
So you can add a ingress qdisc and you can use filters+policers to manage 
incoming traffic, but it will not so powerfull as you can with outgoing 
packets.  You can't delay a packet with the ingress qdisc.
