help
If this option is enabled, the kernel will include support
for queueing packets via NFNETLINK.
config NETFILTER_NETLINK_LOG
tristate "Netfilter LOG over NFNETLINK interface"
default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
select NETFILTER_NETLINK
help
If this option is enabled, the kernel will include support
for logging packets via NFNETLINK.
This obsoletes the existing ipt_ULOG and ebg_ulog mechanisms,
and is also scheduled to replace the old syslog-based ipt_LOG
and ip6t_LOG modules.
config NF_CONNTRACK
tristate "Netfilter connection tracking support"
default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
help
Connection tracking keeps a record of what packets have passed
through your machine, in order to figure out how they are related
into connections.
This is required to do Masquerading or other kinds of Network
Address Translation. It can also be used to enhance packet
filtering (see `Connection state match support' below).
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
if NF_CONNTRACK
config NF_CONNTRACK_MARK
bool 'Connection mark tracking support'
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
This option enables support for connection marks, used by the
`CONNMARK' target and `connmark' match. Similar to the mark value
of packets, but this mark value is kept in the conntrack session
instead of the individual packets.
config NF_CONNTRACK_SECMARK
bool 'Connection tracking security mark support'
depends on NETWORK_SECMARK
default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
help
This option enables security markings to be applied to
connections. Typically they are copied to connections from
packets using the CONNSECMARK target and copied back from
connections to packets with the same target, with the packets
being originally labeled via SECMARK.
If unsure, say 'N'.
config NF_CONNTRACK_ZONES
bool 'Connection tracking zones'
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
depends on NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_CT
help
This option enables support for connection tracking zones.
Normally, each connection needs to have a unique system wide
identity. Connection tracking zones allow to have multiple
connections using the same identity, as long as they are
contained in different zones.
If unsure, say `N'.
config NF_CONNTRACK_EVENTS
bool "Connection tracking events"
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
If this option is enabled, the connection tracking code will
provide a notifier chain that can be used by other kernel code
to get notified about changes in the connection tracking state.
If unsure, say `N'.
config NF_CONNTRACK_TIMESTAMP
bool 'Connection tracking timestamping'
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
This option enables support for connection tracking timestamping.
This allows you to store the flow start-time and to obtain
the flow-stop time (once it has been destroyed) via Connection
tracking events.
If unsure, say `N'.
config NF_CT_PROTO_DCCP
tristate 'DCCP protocol connection tracking support (EXPERIMENTAL)'
depends on EXPERIMENTAL
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED

help
With this option enabled, the layer 3 independent connection
tracking code will be able to do state tracking on DCCP connections.
If unsure, say 'N'.

With this option enabled, the layer 3 independent connection
tracking code will be able to do state tracking on SCTP connections.
If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. If unsure, say `N'.
config NF_CT_PROTO_UDPLITE
tristate 'UDP-Lite protocol connection tracking support'
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
With this option enabled, the layer 3 independent connection
tracking code will be able to do state tracking on UDP-Lite
connections.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NF_CONNTRACK_AMANDA
tristate "Amanda backup protocol support"
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
select TEXTSEARCH
select TEXTSEARCH_KMP
help
If you are running the Amanda backup package <http://www.amanda.org/>
on this machine or machines that will be MASQUERADED through this
machine, then you may want to enable this feature. This allows the
connection tracking and natting code to allow the sub-channels that
Amanda requires for communication of the backup data, messages and
index.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NF_CONNTRACK_FTP
tristate "FTP protocol support"
default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
help
Tracking FTP connections is problematic: special helpers are
required for tracking them, and doing masquerading and other forms
of Network Address Translation on them.
This is FTP support on Layer 3 independent connection tracking.
Layer 3 independent connection tracking is experimental scheme
which generalize ip_conntrack to support other layer 3 protocols.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NF_CONNTRACK_H323
tristate "H.323 protocol support"
depends on (IPV6 || IPV6=n)
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
H.323 is a VoIP signalling protocol from ITU-T. As one of the most
important VoIP protocols, it is widely used by voice hardware and
software including voice gateways, IP phones, Netmeeting, OpenPhone,
Gnomemeeting, etc.
With this module you can support H.323 on a connection tracking/NAT
firewall.
This module supports RAS, Fast Start, H.245 Tunnelling, Call
Forwarding, RTP/RTCP and T.120 based audio, video, fax, chat,
whiteboard, file transfer, etc. For more information, please
visit http://nath323.sourceforge.net/.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NF_CONNTRACK_IRC
tristate "IRC protocol support"
default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
help
There is a commonly-used extension to IRC called
Direct Client-to-Client Protocol (DCC). This enables users to send
files to each other, and also chat to each other without the need
of a server. DCC Sending is used anywhere you send files over IRC,
and DCC Chat is most commonly used by Eggdrop bots. If you are
using NAT, this extension will enable you to send files and initiate
chats. Note that you do NOT need this extension to get files or
have others initiate chats, or everything else in IRC.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NF_CONNTRACK_BROADCAST
tristate
config NF_CONNTRACK_NETBIOS_NS
tristate "NetBIOS name service protocol support"
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
select NF_CONNTRACK_BROADCAST
help
NetBIOS name service requests are sent as broadcast messages from an
unprivileged port and responded to with unicast messages to the
same port. This make them hard to firewall properly because connection
tracking doesn't deal with broadcasts. This helper tracks locally
originating NetBIOS name service requests and the corresponding
responses. It relies on correct IP address configuration, specifically
netmask and broadcast address. When properly configured, the output
of "ip address show" should look similar to this:
$ ip -4 address show eth0
4: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
inet 172.16.2.252/24 brd 172.16.2.255 scope global eth0

This module adds support for PPTP (Point to Point Tunnelling
Protocol, RFC2637) connection tracking and NAT.
If you are running PPTP sessions over a stateful firewall or NAT
box, you may want to enable this feature.
Please note that not all PPTP modes of operation are supported yet.
Specifically these limitations exist:
- Blindly assumes that control connections are always established
in PNS->PAC direction. This is a violation of RFC2637.
- Only supports a single call within each session

config NETFILTER_XT_MARK
tristate 'nfmark target and match support'
default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
---help---
This option adds the "MARK" target and "mark" match.
Netfilter mark matching allows you to match packets based on the
"nfmark" value in the packet.
The target allows you to create rules in the "mangle" table which alter
the netfilter mark (nfmark) field associated with the packet.
Prior to routing, the nfmark can influence the routing method (see
"Use netfilter MARK value as routing key") and can also be used by
other subsystems to change their behavior.
config NETFILTER_XT_CONNMARK
tristate 'ctmark target and match support'
depends on NF_CONNTRACK

select NF_CONNTRACK_MARK
---help---
This option adds the "CONNMARK" target and "connmark" match.
Netfilter allows you to store a mark value per connection (a.k.a.
ctmark), similarly to the packet mark (nfmark). Using this
target and match, you can set and match on this mark.

depends on IP_NF_MANGLE || IP6_NF_MANGLE
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
---help---
This option adds a `CHECKSUM' target, which can be used in the iptables mangle
table.
You can use this target to compute and fill in the checksum in
a packet that lacks a checksum. This is particularly useful,
if you need to work around old applications such as dhcp clients,
that do not work well with checksum offloads, but don't want to disable
checksum offload in your device.

the IPv4/IPv6 header DSCP field (differentiated services codepoint).
The DSCP field can have any value between 0x0 and 0x3f inclusive.
It also adds the "TOS" target, which allows you to create rules in
the "mangle" table which alter the Type Of Service field of an IPv4
or the Priority field of an IPv6 packet, prior to routing.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_HL
tristate '"HL" hoplimit target support'
depends on IP_NF_MANGLE || IP6_NF_MANGLE
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
---help---
This option adds the "HL" (for IPv6) and "TTL" (for IPv4)
targets, which enable the user to change the
hoplimit/time-to-live value of the IP header.
While it is safe to decrement the hoplimit/TTL value, the
modules also allow to increment and set the hoplimit value of
the header to arbitrary values. This is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS
since you can easily create immortal packets that loop
forever on the network.
config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_IDLETIMER
tristate "IDLETIMER target support"
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
This option adds the `IDLETIMER' target. Each matching packet
resets the timer associated with label specified when the rule is
added. When the timer expires, it triggers a sysfs notification.
The remaining time for expiration can be read via sysfs.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_LED
tristate '"LED" target support'
depends on LEDS_CLASS && LEDS_TRIGGERS
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
This option adds a `LED' target, which allows you to blink LEDs in
response to particular packets passing through your machine.
This can be used to turn a spare LED into a network activity LED,
which only flashes in response to FTP transfers, for example. Or
you could have an LED which lights up for a minute or two every time
somebody connects to your machine via SSH.
You will need support for the "led" class to make this work.
To create an LED trigger for incoming SSH traffic:
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j LED --led-trigger-id ssh --led-delay 1000
Then attach the new trigger to an LED on your system:
echo netfilter-ssh > /sys/class/leds/<ledname>/trigger

config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_TCPMSS
tristate '"TCPMSS" target support'
depends on (IPV6 || IPV6=n)
default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
---help---
This option adds a `TCPMSS' target, which allows you to alter the
MSS value of TCP SYN packets, to control the maximum size for that
connection (usually limiting it to your outgoing interface's MTU
minus 40).
This is used to overcome criminally braindead ISPs or servers which
block ICMP Fragmentation Needed packets. The symptoms of this
problem are that everything works fine from your Linux
firewall/router, but machines behind it can never exchange large
packets:
1) Web browsers connect, then hang with no data received.
2) Small mail works fine, but large emails hang.
3) ssh works fine, but scp hangs after initial handshaking.
Workaround: activate this option and add a rule to your firewall
configuration like:
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN \
-j TCPMSS --clamp-mss-to-pmtu

---help---
This option allows you to build work-load-sharing clusters of
network servers/stateful firewalls without having a dedicated
load-balancing router/server/switch. Basically, this match returns
true when the packet must be handled by this cluster node. Thus,
all nodes see all packets and this match decides which node handles
what packets. The work-load sharing algorithm is based on source
address hashing.
If you say Y or M here, try `iptables -m cluster --help` for
more information.
config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_COMMENT
