One use-case where you could use loopback is for crypto coz before decrypting the packet you will not be able to access the packet fields and hence you could receive the encrypted packets in a single flow through a PMR rule decrypt the packet on the flow and send the clear packet back through loopback interface to be classified to a specific flow. > > Classifiers > It is possible to have such a loopback ? > http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/729760loop.png > For example, a packet is classified in flow #1 with processing #1, and then > is classified in flow #2 with processing #2, etc. ? Yes. This scenario is possible through loop back interface. Since classifier is enabled on the interface level the packets coming back through the loopback interface will be classified into their respective flow in your example it will be flow #2 Hopefully the processing on the initial packet changes the packet header fields or the fields which are configured as part of PMR rule. Another example could be that the incoming packet is encrypted and the initial processing decrypts the packets and sends it to the loopback interface to be classified into a different flow.
