.TH "Simple action in tc" 8 "12 Jan 2015" "iproute2" "Linux"

.SH NAME
simple - basic example action
.SH SYNOPSIS
.in +8
.ti -8
.BR tc " ... " "action simple"
[
.BI sdata " STRING"
] [
.BI index " INDEX"
] [
.I CONTROL
]

.ti -8
.IR CONTROL " := {"
.BR reclassify " | " pipe " | " drop " | " continue " | " ok " }"

.SH DESCRIPTION
This is a pedagogical example rather than an actually useful action. Upon every access, it prints the given
.I STRING
which may be of arbitrary length.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.BI sdata " STRING"
The actual string to print.
.TP
.BI index " INDEX"
Optional action index value.
.TP
.I CONTROL
Indicate how
.B tc
should proceed after executing the action. For a description of the possible
.I CONTROL
values, see
.BR tc-actions (8).
.SH EXAMPLES
The following example makes the kernel yell "Incoming ICMP!" every time it sees
an incoming ICMP on eth0. Steps are:
.IP 1) 4
Add an ingress qdisc point to eth0
.IP 2) 4
Start a chain on ingress of eth0 that first matches ICMP then invokes the
simple action to shout.
.IP 3) 4
display stats and show that no packet has been seen by the action
.IP 4) 4
Send one ping packet to google (expect to receive a response back)
.IP 5) 4
grep the logs to see the logged message
.IP 6) 4
display stats again and observe increment by 1
