Paket: iptables (1.3.6.0debian1-5)

administration tools for packet filtering and NAT

netfilter and iptables provide a Linux kernel framework for stateful and stateless packet filtering, network and port address translation, and other IP packet manipulation. The framework is the successor to ipchains.

netfilter and iptables are used in applications such as Internet connection sharing, firewalls, IP accounting, transparent proxying, advanced routing and traffic control.

Please note: the iptables extensions included in this package require kernel support that might not be available in official Linux kernel sources or Debian's packaged Linux kernel sources. And if support for any extension is available for the specific Linux kernel source version, that support might not be enabled in the Linux kernel binary in use.

In particular, kernel patches for IPV4OPTSSTRIP, ROUTE, TARPIT, ipv4options, u32 and set are currently located in patch-o-matic-ng via the netfilter website. patch-o-matic-ng patches are often imported into the official Linux kernel source tree.
