18 Connection tracking keeps a record of what packets have passed
19 through your machine, in order to figure out how they are related
20 into connections.

22 This is IPv4 support on Layer 3 independent connection tracking.
23 Layer 3 independent connection tracking is experimental scheme
24 which generalize ip_conntrack to support other layer 3 protocols.

44 netlink device can be used to access them using this driver.
45
46 This option enables the old IPv4-only "ip_queue" implementation
47 which has been obsoleted by the new "nfnetlink_queue" code (see

132 which has been obsoleted by the new "nfnetlink_log" code (see
133 CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_LOG).
134
135 This option adds a `ULOG' target, which allows you to create rules in
136 any iptables table. The packet is passed to a userspace logging
137 daemon using netlink multicast sockets; unlike the LOG target
138 which can only be viewed through syslog.

163 help
164 Masquerading is a special case of NAT: all outgoing connections are
165 changed to seem to come from a particular interface's address, and
166 if the interface goes down, those connections are lost. This is
167 only useful for dialup accounts with dynamic IP address (ie. your IP
168 address will be different on next dialup).

184 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
185 help
186 REDIRECT is a special case of NAT: all incoming connections are
187 mapped onto the incoming interface's address, causing the packets to
188 come to the local machine instead of passing through. This is
189 useful for transparent proxies.

200 ---help---
201
202 This module implements an Application Layer Gateway (ALG) for
203 SNMP payloads. In conjunction with NAT, it allows a network
204 management system to access multiple private networks with
205 conflicting addresses. It works by modifying IP addresses
206 inside SNMP payloads to match IP-layer NAT mapping.
207
208 This is the "basic" form of SNMP-ALG, as described in RFC 2962
