NAME

       firehol-classify - classify traffic for traffic shaping tools

SYNOPSIS

       { classify | classify46 } class [rule-params]

       classify4 class [rule-params]

       classify6 class [rule-params]

DESCRIPTION

       The classify helper command puts matching traffic into the specified traffic shaping class.

       The class is a class as used by iptables(8) and tc(8) (e.g. MAJOR:MINOR).

       The rule-params define a set of rule parameters to match the traffic that is to be classified.  See fire‐
       hol-params(5) for more details.

       Any  classify commands will affect all traffic matched.  They must be declared before the first router or
       interface.

EXAMPLES

               # Put all smtp traffic leaving via eth1 in class 1:1
               classify 1:1 outface eth1 proto tcp dport 25
