Packet change and redirect using ebtables

Hey all
I need your help with ebtables. I want to redirect traffic through local interfaces.
I have am Ubuntu linux machine with several NICs.
(I understand that ebtables is the same for RH)...
eth0 and eth1 are part of a bridge (br0) and they are connected to tap device. On eth0 I get traffic from network 10.10.10.0/24 to the internet.
Through eth1 I get the responses, internet addresses to 10.10.10.0/24.
None of the packets are destined to the linux host (on L3 and L2 as well).
My goal is to separate the traffic to other interfaces.
Every packet that enters eth0 with source ip 10.10.10.0/24 should be routed or redirected to eth3 (Packet should have the same source and destination IP but the frame should now contain a new SRC MAC, eth3's MAC).
The same applies to traffic that is coming in from eth1. I want to route it to eth4.
eth0 and eth1 are unidirectional, that means that I can't change the traffic and I'm only intercepting it.
Can you please help me build this filter using ebtables ?
I had no luck so far.
Thanks !!

Mirror/redirect action in tc(8) 				       Linux					   Mirror/redirect action in tc(8)

NAME
mirred - mirror/redirect action SYNOPSIS
tc ... action mirred DIRECTION ACTION [ index INDEX ] dev DEVICENAME DIRECTION := { ingress | egress } ACTION := { mirror | redirect } DESCRIPTION
The mirred action allows packet mirroring (copying) or redirecting (stealing) the packet it receives. Mirroring is what is sometimes referred to as Switch Port Analyzer (SPAN) and is commonly used to analyze and/or debug flows. OPTIONS
ingress egress Specify the direction in which the packet shall appear on the destination interface. mirror redirect Define whether the packet should be copied (mirror) or moved (redirect) to the destination interface. index INDEX Assign a unique ID to this action instead of letting the kernel choose one automatically. INDEX is a 32bit unsigned integer greater than zero. dev DEVICENAME Specify the network interface to redirect or mirror to. EXAMPLES
Limit ingress bandwidth on eth0 to 1mbit/s, redirect exceeding traffic to lo for debugging purposes: # tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress # tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: u32 match u32 0 0 action police rate 1mbit burst 100k conform-exceed pipe action mirred egress redirect dev lo Mirror all incoming ICMP packets on eth0 to a dummy interface for examination with e.g. tcpdump: # ip link add dummy0 type dummy # ip link set dummy0 up # tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress # tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff action mirred egress mirror dev dummy0 Using an ifb interface, it is possible to send ingress traffic through an instance of sfq: # modprobe ifb # ip link set ifb0 up # tc qdisc add dev ifb0 root sfq # tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress # tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: u32 match u32 0 0 action mirred egress redirect dev ifb0 SEE ALSO
