Phil Sutter 54beacc334 man: ip-ntable.8: Review synopsis section
The first line contained a c'n'p error, incorrectly listing 'ip address'
syntax. Since PARAMS is used just once and there are not many other
parameters to 'ip ntable change', state them inline and in addition to
that clarify the possibility to pass multiple parameters at once.
