  I saw this link. As I said, I need to use my special model, and a special form for it. But if I create it, I cannot find paging data (draw, start and length) in request. I don't understand why need the controller code if the question is only how to post custom form and default paging info on server, but if you want here it is:
  public ActionResult Products(ProductSearchViewModel model, int draw, int start, int length)
  {

          using (_unitOfWork = _factory.Create())
          {
              var allProducts = _unitOfWork.ProductsRepository.GetProducts(model.CategoryID, model.BrandID, model.ProductStateID, null,
                  model.InPrice, model.Code).Select(ConvertUtils.Converter.Convert<RegularProductDomainModel, RegularProduct>).ToList();
              var products = allProducts.Skip(start*length).Take(length).ToList();
              var pi = typeof (RegularProductDomainModel).GetProperties();
              var list =
                  products.Select(
                      product =>
                          (from propertyInfo in pi
                              where !propertyInfo.Name.Equals("Price")
                              select propertyInfo.GetValue(product, null).ToString()).ToArray()).ToList();
              return Json(new
              {
                  draw,
                  iTotalRecords = allProducts.Count(),
                  iTotalDisplayRecords = products.Count(),
                  aaData = list
              },
     JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
          }
      }
  

  But in this case datatable does not load content.
