NAME
skbmod - user-friendly packet editor action SYNOPSIS
tc ... action skbmod { [ set SETTABLE ] [ swap SWAPPABLE ] [ CONTROL ] [ index INDEX ] } SETTABLE := [ dmac DMAC ] [ smac SMAC ] [ etype ETYPE ] SWAPPABLE := mac CONTROL := { reclassify | pipe | drop | shot | continue | pass } DESCRIPTION
The skbmod action is intended as a usability upgrade to the existing pedit action. Instead of having to manually edit 8-, 16-, or 32-bit chunks of an ethernet header, skbmod allows complete substitution of supported elements. OPTIONS
dmac DMAC Change the destination mac to the specified address. smac SMAC Change the source mac to the specified address. etype ETYPE Change the ethertype to the specified value. mac Used to swap mac addresses. The swap mac directive is performed after any outstanding D/SMAC changes. CONTROL The following keywords allow to control how the tree of qdisc, classes, filters and actions is further traversed after this action. reclassify Restart with the first filter in the current list. pipe Continue with the next action attached to the same filter. drop shot Drop the packet. continue Continue classification with the next filter in line. pass Finish classification process and return to calling qdisc for further packet processing. This is the default. EXAMPLES
To start, observe the following filter with a pedit action: tc filter add dev eth1 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 action pedit munge offset -14 u8 set 0x02 munge offset -13 u8 set 0x15 munge offset -12 u8 set 0x15 munge offset -11 u8 set 0x15 munge offset -10 u16 set 0x1515 pipe Using the skbmod action, this command can be simplified to: tc filter add dev eth1 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 action skbmod set dmac 02:15:15:15:15:15 pipe Complexity will increase if source mac and ethertype are also being edited as part of the action. If all three fields are to be changed with skbmod: tc filter add dev eth5 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 action skbmod set etype 0xBEEF set dmac 02:12:13:14:15:16 set smac 02:22:23:24:25:26 Finally, swap the destination and source mac addresses in the header: tc filter add dev eth3 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 action skbmod swap mac As mentioned above, the swap action will occur after any smac/dmac substitutions are executed, if they are present.

VLAN manipulation action in tc(8)                                      Linux                                     VLAN manipulation action in tc(8)

NAME
vlan - vlan manipulation module SYNOPSIS
tc ... action vlan { pop | PUSH | MODIFY } [ CONTROL ] PUSH := push [ protocol VLANPROTO ] [ priority VLANPRIO ] id VLANID MODIFY := modify [ protocol VLANPROTO ] [ priority VLANPRIO ] id VLANID CONTROL := { reclassify | pipe | drop | continue | pass | goto chain CHAIN_INDEX } DESCRIPTION
The vlan action allows to perform 802.1Q en- or decapsulation on a packet, reflected by the operation modes POP, PUSH and MODIFY. The POP mode is simple, as no further information is required to just drop the outer-most VLAN encapsulation. The PUSH and MODIFY modes require at least a VLANID and allow to optionally choose the VLANPROTO to use. OPTIONS
pop Decapsulation mode, no further arguments allowed. push Encapsulation mode. Requires at least id option. modify Replace mode. Existing 802.1Q tag is replaced. Requires at least id option. id VLANID Specify the VLAN ID to encapsulate into. VLANID is an unsigned 16bit integer, the format is detected automatically (e.g. prefix with '0x' for hexadecimal interpretation, etc.). protocol VLANPROTO Choose the VLAN protocol to use. At the time of writing, the kernel accepts only 802.1Q or 802.1ad. priority VLANPRIO Choose the VLAN priority to use. Decimal number in range of 0-7. CONTROL How to continue after executing this action. reclassify Restarts classification by jumping back to the first filter attached to this action's parent. pipe Continue with the next action, this is the default. drop Packet will be dropped without running further actions. continue Continue classification with next filter in line. pass Return to calling qdisc for packet processing. This ends the classification process. EXAMPLES
The following example encapsulates incoming ICMP packets on eth0 from 10.0.0.2 into VLAN ID 123: #tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress #tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: pref 11 protocol ip u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:1 u32 match ip src 10.0.0.2 flowid 1:1 action vlan push id 123 Here is an example of the pop function: Incoming VLAN packets on eth0 are decapsulated and the classification process then restarted for the plain packet: #tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress #tc filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: pref 1 protocol 802.1Q u32 match u32 0 0 flowid 1:1 action vlan pop reclassify SEE ALSO
