I'm using iptables 1.2.5 under 2.4.17 newnat
I'm also attempting to use the imq device with a view to implementing QOS on
a small home network (heck.. it's fun..) prob. with htb.

Problem is marking packets. Home net is 192.168.0 (wireless 11Mb) &
192.168.1 (ethernet 10Mb full) with ppp0 for adsl 256up 512 down.

I'm using NAT with a single IP address on ppp0

Since I want to mark the packets in the mangle table I think the PREROUTING
chain appears the best to use.
I want to mark seperately
 local -> adsl big/small (11/14)
 adsl -> local big/small (21/24)
 local -> local traffic  (31)

My problem is that my rules attempting to identify local traffic fail. Since
I'm in the prerouting chain I can't use -o device, but I should be able to
examine destination address shouldn't I?


Here are my rules
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -d! 192.168.0.1/16 -m length --length
0:500 -j MARK --set-mark 11
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -d! 192.168.0.1/16 -m length --length
500:15000 -j MARK --set-mark 14
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -s! 192.168.0.1/16 -m length --length
0:500 -j MARK --set-mark 21
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -s! 192.168.0.1/16 -m length --length
500:15000 -j MARK --set-mark 24
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j MARK --set-mark 31
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.0.1/16 -d 192.168.0.1/16 -j
MARK --set-mark 31

I think identification of up/downstream traffic split by length *appears* to
work

Basically the rules are:

1. Traffic not destined for local net & small - mark 11

2. Traffic not destined for localnet & big - mark 14

3. Traffic from internet small - mark 21

4. traffic from internet - large - mark 24

5. Traffic  from local net to localnet - mark 31

What have I done wrong ....?



Also.. what's the best way to see how the packet is marked? I can sort of
see via which queue/class my packet gets sent to, but tcpdump certainly
doesn't show the mark (why should it?)
