Subject: Re: kernel mode pppoe ppp if + ifb + mirred redirect, ethernet packets in ifb?!
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2009 17:15:35 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200910121715.35676.denys@visp.net.lb> (raw)

How it can be ethernet packets (with PPPoE headers) if i am redirecting from 
ppp interface, not ethernet interface?

PPPoE_146 ~ # tcpdump -ni ppp0 -e -vvv -s 1500 -c 4
tcpdump: WARNING:

Btw i test, if i use userspace pppoe (synchronous) i will get different output 
in tcpdump

With PPTP it is as expected, IP packets (like in ppp interface tcpdump).
