broute problems

Hi,

(please let me know if this is not the right mailing list)

I'm using the broute table and have the following problem with it: It looks
like the linux kernel bridge fdb learning mechanism is triggered before the
broute table. So packages which are not ment for the brigde (DROPed in
broute) are not bridged but do update the fdb entries.

In my (somehow bizare but still valid) setup this is an absolute
showstopper bug since the linux bridge code has no support for static fdb
entries (that would be a nice-to-have, btw ;-).

can anyone help? is this a known problem?

afaics this should be easy to solve by just moving the call to an ebtables
hook to another location, but I did not really look into the ebtables APIs
so far..

yours,
 - clifford
