I did an experiment. It seems that something is wrong.

  A

 \  /
  C
A: eth0,  IP 192.168.1.242
     waln1,  IP 192.168.2.200  ,MAC  00 23 cd af d0 74

D:  wlan1, IP  192.168.2.11, MAC 00 23 cd af ec da
     wlan2, IP 192.168.4.11

On node A,
1) run 'tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle 1: root prio'

2) run 'tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32 \
match ip src 192.168.1.0/24 flowid 1:16 \
action mirred egress mirror dev wlan1'

Node A sent some packets to C. (path: A-B-C)
I can use 'tcpdump -i wlan1 -e' to capture the packets from eth0  (node A),  but I can't forward the mirroring packets to D, (then D forwards them to C).

3 ) run 'tc filter del dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32'
then,
'tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 u32 \
match ip src 192.168.1.0/32 flowid 1:16 \
action pedit munge offset -14 u16 set 0x0023 \
munge offset -12 u32 set 0xcdafecda \
munge offset -8 u32 set 0x0023cdaf \
munge offset -4 u32 set 0xd0740800 pipe \
action mirred egress mirror dev wlan1'

After run 'tcpdump -i wlan1 -e', I can not capture any packets.
I change 'mirror' to 'redirect'   ('action mirred egress mirror dev wlan1'),  also capture nothing.
Why?

BTW,
'uname -a'
Linux fedora 2.6.27.30-170.2.82.fc10.i686 #1 SMP Mon Aug 17 08:38:59 EDT 2009
