Subject: packets displayed twice on ipsec interface ...
Date: Sun, 26 Dec 2004 20:01:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <41CF0A76.4060607@scorpion.nl> (raw)

Hi all !

Not really sure this is a kernel, or a netfilter issue, but posting to 
the lkml resulted in no answers so far ;(

After trying to determine the 'overhead' of my ipsec traffic, I hit a 
rather annoying 'feature'.

(Using racoon ipsec with default debian-kernels 2.6.x kernels, but issue 
was with 2.4 as well if i remember correctly.)

Traffic on the outgoing interface (eth0) shows both the encapsulated as 
well as the non-encapsulated packets.

Using default tools a la 'iptraf' counts them both, so it would look 
like my adsl-line is doing 11Mbit :) (which is rather nice since the 
telco has limited it to 6Mbit ...)

Is there any way to prevent the kernel from showing the data inside the 
tunnel ? (172.20.40.45 <> 10.136.100.1 is the tunneled traffic).

bye,
Chris
