Hi,
I'm new to click, and I couldnt find any documentation on how to
actually split a "flow" and merge it later. I have a small routing
table and a few error checks, which, in order, are :
- check IP header/cksum
- check TCP header/cksum
- check UDP header/cksum
- check ICMP header/cksum
- check expired TTL etc.
>From the man pages, I see that CheckTCPHeader *expects* a TCP/IP
packet (similarly for CheckUDPHeader), so I have something like this:
*******
...
//For simplicity, LinearIPLookup
route :: LinearIPLookup (10/8 0, 0/0 1);
//Read from dump
FromDump(a.dump, STOP true) -> checkIPHeader
-> ipc :: IPClassifier(tcp, udp);
ipc[0] -> checkTCP
-> CheckICMPHeader
-> dt :: DecIPTTL
-> GetIPAddress(16)
-> route;
ipc[1] -> checkUDP
-> CheckICMPHeader
-> dt :: DecIPTTL
-> GetIPAddress(16)
-> route;
...
*******
Now, how do I 'merge' the stream of packets split by IPClassifier so I
dont have to replicate the elements coming after the TCP or UDP
checks?
Any help at all will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Anirudh
