Resending ethernet packets to direct neighbours
Hi, i have a pc with five ethernet devices onto and want to resend ethernet packets coming in from one device to four direct neighbours (distance 1). Therefore i have installed a packet handler receiving skbs. Now i have the following questions: 1) is it enough to change the skb->dev to the output device, rebuild the ethernet header and call dev_queue_xmit()? 2) how to i get the destination ethernet address of the physically direct neighbour within the packet handler? I believe, that i have to use the neighour caches but have not idea how... Any help would be appreciated!
