049c96
+.SH DESCRIPTION
049c96
+The
049c96
+.B mirred
049c96
+action allows to redirect or mirror packets to another network interface on the
049c96
+same system. It is typically used in combination with the
049c96
+.B ifb
049c96
+pseudo device to create a shrared instance where QoS happens, but serves well
049c96
+for debugging or monitoring purposes, too.
049c96
+.SH OPTIONS
049c96
+.TP
049c96
+.B ingress
049c96
+.TQ
049c96
+.B egress
049c96
+Specify the direction in which the packet shall appear on the destination
049c96
+interface. Currently only
049c96
+.B egress
049c96
+is implemented.
049c96
+.TP
049c96
+.B mirror
049c96
+.TQ
049c96
+.B redirect
049c96
+Define whether the packet should be copied
049c96
+.RB ( mirror )
049c96
+or moved
049c96
+.RB ( redirect )
049c96
+to the destination interface.
049c96
+.TP
049c96
+.BI index " INDEX"
049c96
+Assign a unique ID to this action instead of letting the kernel choose one
049c96
+automatically.
049c96
+.I INDEX
049c96
+is a 32bit unsigned integer greater than zero.
049c96
+.TP
049c96
+.BI dev " DEVICENAME"
049c96
+Specify the network interface to redirect or mirror to.
049c96
+.SH EXAMPLES
049c96
+Limit ingress bandwidth on eth0 to 1mbit/s, redirect exceeding traffic to lo for
049c96
+debugging purposes:
049c96
+
049c96

049c96

049c96
+# tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress

049c96

+.RE
049c96
+
049c96
+Use an
049c96
+.B ifb
049c96
+interface to send ingress traffic on eth0 through an instance of
049c96
+.BR sfq :
