| 2 | .B address type. |
| 3 | Address types are used within the kernel networking stack and categorize |
| 4 | addresses into various groups. The exact definition of that group depends on the specific layer three protocol. |
| 5 | .TP |
| 6 | The following address types are possible: |
| 7 | .TP |
| 8 | .BI "UNSPEC" |
| 9 | an unspecified address (i.e. 0.0.0.0) |
| 10 | .BI "UNICAST" |
| 11 | an unicast address |

| 13 | a local address |
| 14 | .BI "BROADCAST" |

| 22 | .BI "UNREACHABLE" |
| 23 | an unreachable address |
| 24 | .BI "PROHIBIT" |
| 25 | a prohibited address |
| 26 | .BI "THROW" |
| 27 | FIXME |
| 28 | .BI "NAT" |
| 29 | FIXME |
| 30 | .BI "XRESOLVE" |
| 31 | FIXME |
| 32 | .TP |

| 34 | Matches if the source address is of given type |
| 35 | .TP |
| 36 | .BI "--dst-type " "type" |
