Subject: event-driven connection tracking
Date: Wed, 13 Oct 2010 16:24:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CB5CF17.3090302@googlemail.com> (raw)
Is it possible to use event-driven connection tracking - with
conntrack-utils or by other means?
Ideally, what I would like to do is 'register' a handler for particular
connection events (when new connection is established and then closed
for example) based on particular pre-defined filter (say, by protocol,
source/destination ip etc) and execute a program code/function (if done
programmatically) or a script (if done outside the connection-tracking
domain) to do what I want?
Currently, the only way to track such 'events' is if I include a
separate chain in iptables tracking a particular connection (and logging
the event via a normal log jump), but that is not enough for me as I
also need to trigger a full dump based on that particular 'filter' and
end this dump when the connection is closed. Any ideas?
