ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

All ip packets sent to a host A will be captured in A before the packets
are passed to the high layer, i.e. the TCP or APP.
And, all ip packets sent from A to some other host will be captured in
low layer in A, i.e. Link layer, then the packet will be transferd.
that means i can do something before a packet is passed to the TCP or APP and the same as before it is passed to the Link layer.
I think, if i rewrite the ip stack in kernel, i can do it.
but, is there a simple method to do this? for example, writing a module or a program, when i load the module or run the program, all will be ok.
it is seem to be more difficult. and what is about the windows. i can't rebuild the windows.
I have read some firewall source code of linux, but almost of them base on
the linux utility iptables, that means i can't change any ip packet and only
can make a decision of droping of accepting.
that is so discouraged.
is there one which does not base on iptables? where to get it?
