[Click] Different frame format...

[Rafael Paoliello Guimaraes]

Hi all,

I am currently trying to use Click in user level to send packets through 
a network device that has a frame format different from Ethernet. I 
tried to do something similar to WifiEncap/WifiDecap but I am not having 
success on it... What should I do? What I did so far was to create a two 
elements, one for encapsulating and other for decapsulating the frames 
(EncapElement, DecapElement), these elements converts the MAC frame from 
Ethernet to the format I want and vice-versa (just like 
WifiEncap/WifiDecap). Then I send it to my device. Am I missing some 
step? To generate the new MAC format I based myself completely on the 
device driver's hard_header function.

FromDevice(weth0) -> DecapElement -> ...

... -> EncapElement -> ToDevice(weth0);

Thank you very much!!!

Cheers,
