Hi, Yes. You can write some matching code to match on what you care about and reinject the rest back to the netmap "host interface" that you can create. There's a way to grab both say, em0 for netmap and the host side of em0 so you can reinject packets back up to the host stack and get them from the host stack to process. Luigi would know the details. I just stumbled across it when pecking around. :) -a On 16 July 2014 10:48, Daniel Corbe <corbe@corbe.net> wrote: > > I hope this it the right place to ask questions about netmap.
