592 tristate '"cluster" match support'
593 depends on NF_CONNTRACK
594 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
595 ---help---
596 This option allows you to build work-load-sharing clusters of
597 network servers/stateful firewalls without having a dedicated
598 load-balancing router/server/switch. Basically, this match returns
599 true when the packet must be handled by this cluster node. Thus,
600 all nodes see all packets and this match decides which node handles
601 what packets. The work-load sharing algorithm is based on source
602 address hashing.
603
604 If you say Y or M here, try `iptables -m cluster --help` for
605 more information.

612 comments in your iptables ruleset.

639 depends on NF_CONNTRACK
640 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
641 select NETFILTER_XT_CONNMARK
642 ---help---
643 This is a backwards-compat option for the user's convenience
644 (e.g. when running oldconfig). It selects
645 CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_CONNMARK (combined connmark/CONNMARK module).

649 depends on NF_CONNTRACK
650 default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
651 help
652 This is a general conntrack match module, a superset of the state match.
653
654 It allows matching on additional conntrack information, which is
655 useful in complex configurations, such as NAT gateways with multiple
656 internet links or tunnels.
657
658 To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.

666 `dccp' match in order to match on DCCP source/destination ports
667 and DCCP flags.

674 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
675 help
676 This option adds a `DSCP' match, which allows you to match against
677 the IPv4/IPv6 header DSCP field (differentiated services codepoint).
678
679 The DSCP field can have any value between 0x0 and 0x3f inclusive.
680
681 It will also add a "tos" match, which allows you to match packets
682 based on the Type Of Service fields of the IPv4 packet (which share
683 the same bits as DSCP).

699 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
700 help
701 This option adds a `hashlimit' match.
702
703 As opposed to `limit', this match dynamically creates a hash table
704 of limit buckets, based on your selection of source/destination
705 addresses and/or ports.
706
707 It enables you to express policies like `10kpps for any given
708 destination address' or `500pps from any given source address'
709 with a single rule.

730 tristate '"iprange" address range match support'
731 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
732 ---help---
733 This option adds a "iprange" match, which allows you to match based on
734 an IP address range. (Normal iptables only matches on single addresses
735 with an optional mask.)
736
737 If unsure, say M.
738
739 config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_LENGTH
740 tristate '"length" match support'

747
748 config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_LIMIT
749 tristate '"limit" match support'
750 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
751 help
752 limit matching allows you to control the rate at which a rule can be
753 matched: mainly useful in combination with the LOG target ("LOG
754 target support", below) and to avoid some Denial of Service attacks.

778 depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
779 help
780 Multiport matching allows you to match TCP or UDP packets based on
781 a series of source or destination ports: normally a rule can only
782 match a single range of ports.

978 headers with lengths stored in the packet, as in IP or TCP header
979 lengths.
