|
.In sys/types.h
|
|
.In netgraph/ng_tee.h
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm tee
|
|
node type has a purpose similar to the
|
|
.Xr tee 1
|
|
command.
|
|
.Nm Tee
|
|
nodes are useful for debugging or
|
|
.Dq snooping
|
|
on a connection
|
|
between two netgraph nodes.
|
|
.Nm Tee
|
|
nodes have four hooks,
|
|
.Dv right ,
|
|
.Dv left ,
|
|
.Dv right2left ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv left2right .
|
|
All data received on
|
|
.Dv right
|
|
is sent unmodified to
|
|
.Em both
|
|
hooks
|
|
.Dv left
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv right2left .
|
|
Similarly, all data received on
|
|
.Dv left
|
|
is sent unmodified to both
|
|
.Dv right
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv left2right .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Packets may also be received on
|
|
.Dv right2left
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv left2right ;
|
|
if so, they are forwarded unchanged out hooks
|
|
.Dv right
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv left ,
|
|
respectively.
|
|
.Sh HOOKS
|
|
This node type supports the following hooks:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width foobarbarfoo
|
|
.It Dv right
|
|
The connection to the node on the right.
|
|
.It Dv left
|
|
The connection to the node on the left.
|
|
.It Dv right2left
|
|
Tap for right to left traffic.
|
|
.It Dv left2right
|
|
Tap for left to right traffic.
|

.Bl -tag -width foo
|
|
.It Dv NGM_TEE_GET_STATS

|
|
.Sh SHUTDOWN
|

|
|
If both

|
.Dv right
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv left
|
|
hooks are present, node removes itself from the chain gently,
|

|
|
.Dv left
|
|
together.
