Hi Alfredo,

Thanks for your post. Let me check how the zbalance_ipc is using PF RING 
libraries. Could you please let me know what sort of IPC is used by zbalance? 
Is it a FIFO or Pipes. Also, if I use my own application for implementing 
packet classifier can I use more own IPC like socket or message queue? Does PF 
RING provides all the libraries?


Thanks

Hi Venkata
any reason you are doing this in kernel space?
Please consider using PF_RING ZC, it works with any adapter and standard 
drivers, and you can write your packet classifier in userspace (see 
examples_zc/zbalance_ipc) which is much more straightforward.

Hi,

I am quite new to PF Ring Code. I have an architecture & a requirement like 
below.

Basically I want to implement a packet classifier at PF-Ring Level and classify 
packet based on Protocol Type whether its is a UDP or TCP service and route it 
to specific application.

Now, although I could classify the packet at classifier I am not able to 
identify on how I should route to the specific application. Because in user 
space its quite straight forward where I can route based on the port of the 
application that is running. I’ll just try to find the send or SendTo and 
directly call for each packet type.

Here since I am bit new to kernel space, I am trying to find a place holder in 
PF Ring Code where I can find the sending point after classifying. Can I 
mention certain port numbers at PF Ring level for the application?. Or do I 
need to create a ring buffer for specific application?. Can you please help? . 
Basically I want to know the place holder to send a specific packet in PF ring 
after classifying it.
