LARTC - Jul 2003 - Transparent Bridge and classifying

Hi

I would like classify and then shape traffic based on destination, but on 
a transparent bridge.

I understand that in a routed situation I could mark the packet with 
iptables, but as I understand iptables only apply to routed traffic,  not 
bridged traffic.

What I want to do is limit traffic to a certain destination to a certain 
rate. Lets say dest 192.168.0.0/24 to 64k and then anything not matched to 
that network (!192.168.0.0/24) is shaped to say 32k.

Does tc allow a "!" character? Or could I define two tc statements ?
Say
first one to classify dest 192.168.0.0/24 and then the next one to 
classify dest 0/0 ? Will that match sequentially...? (don''t think so)

Any help or ideas will be appreciated!

Ivan

You can use ebtables.
