<html><head><style type="text/css"><!-- DIV {margin:0px;} --></style></head><body><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><DIV>I'm receiving vlan tagged packets on a non-vlan interface and I want to be able to strip off the tag on the way in and later insert the tag back in on the way out.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I've looked at two options but none of them work for me:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>- Hooking into netfilter's iptables hooks -- since I do not have a vlan interface, the packets do not even reach L3 and so my hooks won't even get invoked.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>- Hooking into netfilter's ebtables hooks, will give me access to the vlan tag, but then I am forced to create a bridge. I don't want to do that.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Can anyone provide some insight as to how I can achieve this?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>thanks,</DIV>
