827 since you can easily create immortal packets that loop
828 forever on the network.
830 config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_HMARK
831 tristate '"HMARK" target support'
832 depends on IP6_NF_IPTABLES || IP6_NF_IPTABLES=n
833 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
835 This option adds the "HMARK" target.
837 The target allows you to create rules in the "raw" and "mangle" tables
838 which set the skbuff mark by means of hash calculation within a given
839 range. The nfmark can influence the routing method and can also be used
840 by other subsystems to change their behaviour.

844 config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_IDLETIMER
845 tristate "IDLETIMER target support"
846 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
849 This option adds the `IDLETIMER' target. Each matching packet
850 resets the timer associated with label specified when the rule is
851 added. When the timer expires, it triggers a sysfs notification.
852 The remaining time for expiration can be read via sysfs.
854 To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
856 config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_LED
857 tristate '"LED" target support'
858 depends on LEDS_CLASS && LEDS_TRIGGERS
859 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
861 This option adds a `LED' target, which allows you to blink LEDs in
862 response to particular packets passing through your machine.
864 This can be used to turn a spare LED into a network activity LED,
865 which only flashes in response to FTP transfers, for example. Or
866 you could have an LED which lights up for a minute or two every time
867 somebody connects to your machine via SSH.
869 You will need support for the "led" class to make this work.
871 To create an LED trigger for incoming SSH traffic:
872 iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j LED --led-trigger-id ssh --led-delay 1000
874 Then attach the new trigger to an LED on your system:
875 echo netfilter-ssh > /sys/class/leds/<ledname>/trigger
877 For more information on the LEDs available on your system, see
878 Documentation/leds/leds-class.txt
880 config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_LOG
881 tristate "LOG target support"
884 select NF_LOG_IPV6 if IPV6

958 config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_REDIRECT
959 tristate "REDIRECT target support"
961 select NF_NAT_REDIRECT
963 REDIRECT is a special case of NAT: all incoming connections are
964 mapped onto the incoming interface's address, causing the packets to
965 come to the local machine instead of passing through. This is
966 useful for transparent proxies.

993 This option adds a `TPROXY' target, which is somewhat similar to
994 REDIRECT. It can only be used in the mangle table and is useful
995 to redirect traffic to a transparent proxy. It does _not_ depend
996 on Netfilter connection tracking and NAT, unlike REDIRECT.
997 For it to work you will have to configure certain iptables rules
998 and use policy routing. For more information on how to set it up
999 see Documentation/networking/tproxy.txt.

1101 true when the packet must be handled by this cluster node. Thus,
1102 all nodes see all packets and this match decides which node handles
1103 what packets. The work-load sharing algorithm is based on source

1210 the IPv4/IPv6 header DSCP field (differentiated services codepoint).
1212 The DSCP field can have any value between 0x0 and 0x3f inclusive.
1214 It will also add a "tos" match, which allows you to match packets
1215 based on the Type Of Service fields of the IPv4 packet (which share

1490 packets for which a TCP or UDP socket lookup finds a valid socket.
1491 It can be used in combination with the MARK target and policy
1492 routing to implement full featured non-locally bound sockets.
1494 To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.

1501 Connection state matching allows you to match packets based on their
1502 relationship to a tracked connection (ie. previous packets). This
1503 is a powerful tool for packet classification.
1505 To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
1507 config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STATISTIC
1508 tristate '"statistic" match support'
1509 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
1511 This option adds a `statistic' match, which allows you to match
1512 on packets periodically or randomly with a given percentage.
1514 To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
1516 config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STRING
1517 tristate '"string" match support'
1518 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
1520 select TEXTSEARCH_KMP
1521 select TEXTSEARCH_BM
1522 select TEXTSEARCH_FSM
1524 This option adds a `string' match, which allows you to look for
1525 pattern matchings in packets.
1527 To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
1529 config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_TCPMSS
1530 tristate '"tcpmss" match support'
1531 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
1533 This option adds a `tcpmss' match, which allows you to examine the
1534 MSS value of TCP SYN packets, which control the maximum packet size
1535 for that connection.
1537 To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
1539 config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_TIME
1540 tristate '"time" match support'
1541 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
1543 This option adds a "time" match, which allows you to match based on
1544 the packet arrival time (at the machine which netfilter is running)
1545 on) or departure time/date (for locally generated packets).
1547 If you say Y here, try `iptables -m time --help` for
1550 If you want to compile it as a module, say M here.
1553 config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_U32
1554 tristate '"u32" match support'
1555 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
1557 u32 allows you to extract quantities of up to 4 bytes from a packet,
1558 AND them with specified masks, shift them by specified amounts and
1559 test whether the results are in any of a set of specified ranges.
1560 The specification of what to extract is general enough to skip over
1561 headers with lengths stored in the packet, as in IP or TCP header
1564 Details and examples are in the kernel module source.
