11 ---help---
12 Connection tracking keeps a record of what packets have passed
13 through your machine, in order to figure out how they are related
14 into connections.
15
16 This is IPv6 support on Layer 3 independent connection tracking.
17 Layer 3 independent connection tracking is experimental scheme
18 which generalize ip_conntrack to support other layer 3 protocols.
