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).

depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
If this option is enabled, the connection tracking code will
keep per-flow packet and byte counters.
Those counters can be used for flow-based accounting or the
`connbytes' match.
Please note that currently this option only sets a default state.
You may change it at boot time with nf_conntrack.acct=0/1 kernel
parameter or by loading the nf_conntrack module with acct=0/1.
You may also disable/enable it on a running system with:

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,

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_NETBIOS_NS
tristate "NetBIOS name service protocol support"
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
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

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_TARGET_DSCP
tristate '"DSCP" and "TOS" target support'
depends on IP_NF_MANGLE || IP6_NF_MANGLE
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
This option adds a `DSCP' target, which allows you to manipulate
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_LED
tristate '"LED" target support'
depends on LEDS_CLASS && LED_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
For more information on the LEDs available on your system, see
Documentation/leds-class.txt
config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_MARK
tristate '"MARK" target support'
default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
help
This option adds a `MARK' target, which allows you to create rules
in the `mangle' table which alter the netfilter mark (nfmark) field
associated with the packet prior to routing. This can change
the routing method (see `Use netfilter MARK value as routing
key') and can also be used by other subsystems to change their
behavior.

select NF_DEFRAG_IPV4
help
This option adds a `TPROXY' target, which is somewhat similar to
REDIRECT. It can only be used in the mangle table and is useful
to redirect traffic to a transparent proxy. It does _not_ depend
on Netfilter connection tracking and NAT, unlike REDIRECT.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_TRACE
tristate '"TRACE" target support'

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.

With this option enabled, you will be able to use the
`sctp' match in order to match on SCTP source/destination ports
and SCTP chunk types.
If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
<file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. If unsure, say `N'.
config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_SOCKET
tristate '"socket" match support (EXPERIMENTAL)'
depends on EXPERIMENTAL
depends on NETFILTER_TPROXY
depends on NETFILTER_XTABLES
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
select NF_DEFRAG_IPV4
help
This option adds a `socket' match, which can be used to match
packets for which a TCP or UDP socket lookup finds a valid socket.
It can be used in combination with the MARK target and policy
routing to implement full featured non-locally bound sockets.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STATE
tristate '"state" match support'
depends on NF_CONNTRACK
default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
help
Connection state matching allows you to match packets based on their
relationship to a tracked connection (ie. previous packets). This
is a powerful tool for packet classification.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STATISTIC
tristate '"statistic" match support'
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
This option adds a `statistic' match, which allows you to match
on packets periodically or randomly with a given percentage.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STRING
tristate '"string" match support'
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
select TEXTSEARCH
select TEXTSEARCH_KMP
select TEXTSEARCH_BM
select TEXTSEARCH_FSM
help
This option adds a `string' match, which allows you to look for
pattern matchings in packets.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_TCPMSS
tristate '"tcpmss" match support'
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
help
This option adds a `tcpmss' match, which allows you to examine the
MSS value of TCP SYN packets, which control the maximum packet size
for that connection.
To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_TIME
tristate '"time" match support'
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
---help---
This option adds a "time" match, which allows you to match based on
the packet arrival time (at the machine which netfilter is running)
on) or departure time/date (for locally generated packets).
If you say Y here, try `iptables -m time --help` for
more information.
If you want to compile it as a module, say M here.
If unsure, say N.
config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_U32
tristate '"u32" match support'
depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
---help---
u32 allows you to extract quantities of up to 4 bytes from a packet,
AND them with specified masks, shift them by specified amounts and
test whether the results are in any of a set of specified ranges.
The specification of what to extract is general enough to skip over
headers with lengths stored in the packet, as in IP or TCP header
lengths.
Details and examples are in the kernel module source.
