[bwm-tools-tech] bwm-tools and layer 7 marking?

[Joel M. <jo...@se...>]

Hi list :)

Is it possible to use bwm-tools with layer 7 filtering patches
(available @ http://l7-filter.sf.net)?

The L7 filters are basically inline reg exps. that classify the protocol
of the application layer data, based upon a chain of (say) 8 packets.
The packets are then MARKed as X protocol based upon the pattern match.

Any help would be appreciated!
Joel

Yep,

The Layer 7 filtering patches as far as I can see add the support to
netfilter, BWM Tools uses netfilter for marking, matching and firewalling.

Any netfilter match will work with BWM Tools.

Nigel
