Re: Problem configuring bridge as a hub between host server and running VM guest

[Andrew Woods <drew.woods@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm wanting to do something similar (mirror certain frames on a physical interface to a tap device). I've never use tc before, but it seems it only works on the L3 packet level, does it also work with all L2 frames (eg STP), or will I need to use something like ebtables?

Thanks,

Drew

A better way is to use tc mirred action to mirror packets to a dummy or other
interface.
