Right, I forgot to mention that in this case it's only 802.3 frames that I'm interested in. I expect to get very few packets, and don't want to impact the performance of the other IP-based traffic. Also, I've already implemented the protocol in userspace and don't wanna move it into the kernel ;-) > I don't know the details, but can't you hook some kernel function onto > ETH_P_ALL that only sends IP packets to userspace? This still sounds like packet-socket territory to me. Wouldn't it be better to clarify/extend the packet-socket interface to cover bridged ports? -Luke _______________________________________________ Bridge mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/bridge
