Henrik Nordstromc2794132004-01-22 15:04:24 +00001This module attempts to match various characteristics of the packet
2creator, for locally-generated packets. It is only valid in the
3.B OUTPUT
Yasuyuki KOZAKAI28e5b792006-01-30 08:50:09 +00004chain, and even this some packets (such as ICMPv6 ping responses) may
Henrik Nordstromc2794132004-01-22 15:04:24 +00005have no owner, and hence never match. This is regarded as experimental.
