348 ---help---
349 This option adds the "MARK" target and "mark" match.
350
351 Netfilter mark matching allows you to match packets based on the
352 "nfmark" value in the packet.
353 The target allows you to create rules in the "mangle" table which alter
354 the netfilter mark (nfmark) field associated with the packet.
355
356 Prior to routing, the nfmark can influence the routing method (see
357 "Use netfilter MARK value as routing key") and can also be used by
358 other subsystems to change their behavior.

1040 This option adds a `socket' match, which can be used to match
1041 packets for which a TCP or UDP socket lookup finds a valid socket.
1042 It can be used in combination with the MARK target and policy
1043 routing to implement full featured non-locally bound sockets.

1052 Connection state matching allows you to match packets based on their
1053 relationship to a tracked connection (ie. previous packets). This
1054 is a powerful tool for packet classification.

1108 u32 allows you to extract quantities of up to 4 bytes from a packet,
1109 AND them with specified masks, shift them by specified amounts and
1110 test whether the results are in any of a set of specified ranges.
1111 The specification of what to extract is general enough to skip over
1112 headers with lengths stored in the packet, as in IP or TCP header
1113 lengths.
