NAME

firehol-classify - classify traffic for traffic shaping tools

SYNOPSIS

{ classify | classify46 } class [rule-params]

classify4 class [rule-params]

classify6 class [rule-params]

DESCRIPTION

The classify helper command puts matching traffic into the specified traffic shaping class.

The class is a class as used by iptables(8) and tc(8) (e.g. MAJOR:MINOR).

The rule-params define a set of rule parameters to match the traffic that is to be classified. See firehol-params(5) for more details.

Any classify commands will affect all traffic matched. They must be declared before the first router or interface.

EXAMPLES

     # Put all smtp traffic leaving via eth1 in class 1:1
     classify 1:1 outface eth1 proto tcp dport 25
