[background] the Simple network usage scenarios: the one PC software<--->linux router(L3)/linux bridege(L2,bridge-nf-call-iptables)<--->the other PC software 1)the PC software send the ip packet with the iphdr flags reserved bit is set, when ip packet(not fragments ) via the one linux router/linux bridge,and the iphdr flags reserved bit is not modified; 2)but the ip fragments via router,the linux IP reassembly or fragmentation ,causing the reserved bit is reset to zero,Which leads to The other PC software depending on the reserved bit set process the Packet failed. [rfc] RFC791 Bit 0: reserved, must be zero RFC3514 Introduction This bit , but The scene seems different from us,we expect Keep reserved bit set is not modified when forward the linux router
