Hi,
I'm working on some improvements to OpenAP
(http://opensource.instant802.com). A linux distribution for Intel based
wireless access points. I'd like to enable MAC address based filtering
on the wireless traffic to keep unknown (and unwanted) traffic away from
the wire.
The AP is basically providing a bridge between the wired and the
wireless interfaces:
# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br0 0064.0090d100ddc7 yes wlan0
wlan0ap0
wlan0ap1
wlan0ap2
wlan0ap3
wlan0ap4
eth0
The problem is that none of the 'standard' queues (INPUT, OUTPUT,
FORWARD) see the traffic going over the bridge. Is there any way (kernel
patch, module, app) to get a netfilter queue for the bridged traffic?
Thanks,
BB
