Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I'm currently playing around with and learning what I can about netgraph to see if I want to use it in a new project. I thought I'd play around by trying to use it on the ethernet card (rl0). I'm wondering if anyone has done that and if I'd also have to make a TCP netgraph node to make it work the way I'd expect. I think I'd be looking at something like: SocketNode->TCPNode(does not seem to exist)->IFaceNode(IP)->NICNode(enet) Or am I off base on how netgraph can/should be used? I see some ngether_*() routines in if_ethersubr.c so I assume someone is already looking into a netgraph enet node. I'm currenlty working on 3.2 with the netgraph 3.0 patches applied. I see netgraph appears to be integrated into 4.0. Is it worth moving up to 4.0 before I start getting too deep in netgraph? Thanks for any insite. Vern A.
