And, to all of you having trouble imagining how else you'd apply these net channel ideas. Consider the case where the RX classifier gives you the net channel which is the output queue of another device. That's routing and packet mirroring :-) The RX classifier could give you a net channel for a netfilter rule. And let's assume that after netfilter NAT's the packet, it's for the local host, and netfilter does another classification and ends up with a local socket net channel. Use your imagination, this stuff can be applied everywhere. It's like eating peanuts. You start eating them one by one and you just can't stop :-) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
