RE: Packet Handler



Hi,

In order for a network layer to receive any data
the layer must register with a packet sub-system.
I know that each network layer register it self in a
kernel hash table.
So when a packet arrive the kernel looks in to hash table
and base on that it will forward the packet to the right network layer.

My question is how can I see the current status of the hash table ?
