ipfw with modip().

[Marcelo Araujo]

Hi all,
I continue play with the modip function. Yesterday I talked with
Roman(aka novel@) about what would be the best way to implement the
suggestions sent by some guys.
We talked about how to implement the function and how to use it.
My vision is: to create a function with a minor impact possible for
usability.
I believe the best way is the function as an action.

Example:

island# ipfw add modip
ipfw: need modip [DF|TOS|IPPRE|DSCP]:code arg

island# ipfw add 10 modip tos:lowdelay ip from any to any
island# ipfw add 15 modip ippre:immediate ip from any to any
island# ipfw add 20 modip dscp:af14 ip from 192.168.0.0/16 to any via xl0


I continue to work within modip(), now I begin to implement another
patchs related with QoS in layer IP:
kern/102471, kern/103454 and kern/121122.
I'd like some opinions around this concern and suggestions.



Best Regards,
