Re: [LARTC] Re: iptables and DSCP

Talking about DSCP field...

iptables is said to provide all the features of ipchains and something more and
better organized, but with ipchains I was able to set all the DSCP values 
in the TOS field, with iptables it seems this is no more possible, only few 
values are permitted.

For example:

> iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING  -s 10.0.0.2 -j TOS --set-tos 0xb8

gives me:

iptables v1.1.2:Bad TOS value '0xb8'

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you

Giovanna Pavarani
