166 This option adds a `ULOG' target, which allows you to create rules in
167 any iptables table. The packet is passed to a userspace logging
168 daemon using netlink multicast sockets; unlike the LOG target
169 which can only be viewed through syslog.

195 Masquerading is a special case of NAT: all outgoing connections are
196 changed to seem to come from a particular interface's address, and
197 if the interface goes down, those connections are lost. This is
198 only useful for dialup accounts with dynamic IP address (ie. your IP

230 This module implements an Application Layer Gateway (ALG) for
231 SNMP payloads. In conjunction with NAT, it allows a network
232 management system to access multiple private networks with
233 conflicting addresses. It works by modifying IP addresses
234 inside SNMP payloads to match IP-layer NAT mapping.
