Description: administration tools for packet filtering and NAT
15
netfilter and iptables provide a Linux kernel framework for
16
stateful and stateless packet filtering, network and port address
17
translation, and other IP packet manipulation. The framework is
18
the successor to ipchains.
16
These are the user-space administration tools for the Linux
17
kernel's netfilter and iptables. netfilter and iptables provide
18
a framework for stateful and stateless packet filtering, network
19
and port address translation, and other IP packet manipulation.
20
The framework is the successor to ipchains.
20
22
netfilter and iptables are used in applications such as Internet
21
23
connection sharing, firewalls, IP accounting, transparent proxying,
22
24
advanced routing and traffic control.
24
Please note: the iptables extensions included in this package
25
require kernel support that might not be available in official Linux
26
kernel sources or Debian's packaged Linux kernel sources. And if
27
support for any extension is available for the specific Linux kernel
28
source version, that support might not be enabled in the Linux kernel
31
In particular, kernel patches for IPV4OPTSSTRIP, TARPIT, ipv4options,
32
u32 and set are currently located in patch-o-matic-ng via the netfilter
33
website. patch-o-matic-ng patches are often imported into the official
34
Linux kernel source tree.
