	---help---
	  Connection tracking keeps a record of what packets have passed
	  through your machine, in order to figure out how they are related
	  into connections.

	  This is IPv4 support on Layer 3 independent connection tracking.
	  Layer 3 independent connection tracking is experimental scheme
	  which generalize ip_conntrack to support other layer 3 protocols.

	  To compile it as a module, choose M here.  If unsure, say N.

config NF_CONNTRACK_PROC_COMPAT

	depends on NF_CONNTRACK_PROCFS && NF_CONNTRACK_IPV4
	default y
	help
	  This option enables /proc and sysctl compatibility with the old
	  layer 3 dependent connection tracking. This is needed to keep
	  old programs that have not been adapted to the new names working.

	tristate "IPv4 nf_tables route chain support"
	help
	  This option enables the "route" chain for IPv4 in nf_tables. This
	  chain type is used to force packet re-routing after mangling header
	  fields such as the source, destination, type of service and
	  the packet mark.

	  This module implements an Application Layer Gateway (ALG) for
	  SNMP payloads.  In conjunction with NAT, it allows a network
	  management system to access multiple private networks with
	  conflicting addresses.  It works by modifying IP addresses
	  inside SNMP payloads to match IP-layer NAT mapping.

	  This is the "basic" form of SNMP-ALG, as described in RFC 2962

	default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
	help
	  Packet filtering defines a table `filter', which has a series of

	  To compile it as a module, choose M here.  If unsure, say N.

config IP_NF_TARGET_REJECT
	tristate "REJECT target support"
	depends on IP_NF_FILTER

	  The REJECT target allows a filtering rule to specify that an ICMP
	  error should be issued in response to an incoming packet, rather
	  than silently being dropped.

	  To compile it as a module, choose M here.  If unsure, say N.

config IP_NF_TARGET_SYNPROXY
	tristate "SYNPROXY target support"
	depends on NF_CONNTRACK && NETFILTER_ADVANCED
	select NETFILTER_SYNPROXY
	select SYN_COOKIES
	help
	  The SYNPROXY target allows you to intercept TCP connections and
	  establish them using syncookies before they are passed on to the
	  server. This allows to avoid conntrack and server resource usage
	  during SYN-flood attacks.

	  To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.

config IP_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE
	tristate "MASQUERADE target support"
	select NF_NAT_MASQUERADE_IPV4
	default m if NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n
	help
	  Masquerading is a special case of NAT: all outgoing connections are
	  changed to seem to come from a particular interface's address, and
	  if the interface goes down, those connections are lost.  This is
	  only useful for dialup accounts with dynamic IP address (ie. your IP
	  address will be different on next dialup).

	  To compile it as a module, choose M here.  If unsure, say N.

config IP_NF_TARGET_ECN
	tristate "ECN target support"
	depends on IP_NF_MANGLE
	depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
	---help---
	  This option adds a `ECN' target, which can be used in the iptables mangle
	  table.  

	  You can use this target to remove the ECN bits from the IPv4 header of
	  an IP packet.  This is particularly useful, if you need to work around
	  existing ECN blackholes on the internet, but don't want to disable
	  ECN support in general.

	  To compile it as a module, choose M here.  If unsure, say N.

# raw + specific targets
config IP_NF_RAW
	tristate  'raw table support (required for NOTRACK/TRACE)'
	help
	  This option adds a `raw' table to iptables. This table is the very
	  first in the netfilter framework and hooks in at the PREROUTING
	  and OUTPUT chains.
	
	  If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read
	  <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>.  If unsure, say `N'.

# security table for MAC policy
config IP_NF_SECURITY

	tristate "ARP packet filtering"
	help
	  ARP packet filtering defines a table `filter', which has a series of
