LED trigger in iptables

LED trigger in iptables

[Mekabe Ramein]

Hi,

I am trying to use xt_LED module which is included in my kernel.
However, "iptables" does not accept the "--led-trigger-id" parameter
in the following command (which is an example given in module
description):

iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp --dport 5060 -j LED --led-trigger-id sip
--led-delay 100

My iptables version is 1.4.5 but it does not have the extension xt_LED in it.
So I searched for this and found a patch which adds this feature. But
I don't know where to apply the patch.
How can I make use of it ?

Should I include it in iptables source or another package ?

Thanks,

The LED extension hasn't been merged yet because of some open problems.

Thanks for that information.
But isn't it interesting to see it added to stable kernel sources ?
The module is there but iptables does not support it. How can I use it ?

Any idea about this issue ?
How can I use the LED trigger feature which is available in kernel ?

I suggested a fix to the author of the LED target, but still waiting
to hear back about it.

Hi,

Is there any news about the LED trigger support ?

Thanks.
