Simple action in tc(8)               Linux              Simple action in tc(8)

NAME
       simple - basic example action
SYNOPSIS
       tc ... action simple [ sdata STRING ] [ index INDEX ] [ CONTROL ]
       CONTROL := { reclassify | pipe | drop | continue | ok }

DESCRIPTION
       This  is  a  pedagogical example rather than an actually useful action.
       Upon every access, it prints the given STRING which may be of arbitrary
       length.
OPTIONS
       sdata STRING
              The actual string to print.
       index INDEX
              Optional action index value.
       CONTROL
              Indicate how tc should proceed after executing the action. For a
              description of the possible CONTROL values, see tc-pedit(8).
EXAMPLES
       The following example makes the kernel yell "Incoming ICMP!" every time
       it sees an incoming ICMP on eth0. Steps are:
       1)  Add an ingress qdisc point to eth0
       2)  Start  a  chain  on  ingress  of  eth0 that first matches ICMP then
           invokes the simple action to shout.
       3)  display stats and show that no packet has been seen by the action
       4)  Send one ping packet to google (expect to receive a response back)
       5)  grep the logs to see the logged message
       6)  display stats again and observe increment by 1
