Bridge with iptable

Bridge with iptable

[B H R Balaji]

Hi

iam trying to setup a bridge with iptable
i have setup the transparent bridge,

and iam try to mark the http packets for QOS
iam not able to see the packets

i was going through the Lartc.org
some where i read at this stage ( kernel 2.4.18-27 Redhat iam using) bridge
will not support iptables.
it will support only on kernel 2.5, is this true

if false, where can i get the right documentation which help me to setup
bridge with packet filtering

thanks in advance for the help

Check out http://bridge.sourceforge.net for docs

Bridging with netfilter functionality in 2.4.x requires a kernel patch:

http://bridge.sourceforge.net/devel/bridge-nf/bridge-nf-0.0.7-against-2.4.19
.diff

This should work just fine with most 2.4.x kernel source trees.  There are
precompiled kernels, too, I think, at the same place.
