I can confirm that your patch deals with my command sensibly, and also that "tc filter add ... conform-exceed drop/drop" does what I wanted. > It never had this parameter [...] That command is from a script that used to work with iproute2-ss020116 (2002!), which had the following in tc/m_police.c: 210 } else if (strcmp(*argv, "action") == 0) { 211 NEXT_ARG(); 212 if (get_police_result(&p.action, &presult, *argv)) { I don't know when that bit was dropped, but it used to be there. :-) Thank you for your help. -- ams - 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
