Quoting its short description: Ethernet bridge tables. A firewalling tool to transparantly filter network traffic passing a bridge. The filtering possibilities are limited to link layer filtering and some basic filtering on higher network layers. The ebtables tool can be used together with the other Linux filtering tools, like iptables. There are no incompatibility issues. This site also contains the latest bridge-nf patches for the 2.4 kernel series. While searching, I found the Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic Control HOWTO (ltrac), http://lartc.org/howto/index.html, which claims to be `A very hands-on approach to iproute2, traffic shaping and a bit of netfilter'. There is also the http://l7-filter.sourceforge.net/. That short page mostly says how in debts the authors are for the lartc HOWTO. Note sure how the l7-filter fits in. I guess I am mostly confusing different tools. -- Shaul Karl, shaulk @ actcom . net . il ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
