654 Netfilter mark matching allows you to match packets based on the

656 The target allows you to create rules in the "mangle" table which alter
657 the netfilter mark (nfmark) field associated with the packet.

904 This can be used to turn a spare LED into a network activity LED,

906 you could have an LED which lights up for a minute or two every time
907 somebody connects to your machine via SSH.
908
909 You will need support for the "led" class to make this work.

912 iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j LED --led-trigger-id ssh --led-delay 1000

1440 Socket owner matching allows you to match locally-generated packets
1441 based on who created the socket: the user or group. It is also
1442 possible to check whether a socket actually exists.

1612 u32 allows you to extract quantities of up to 4 bytes from a packet,
1613 AND them with specified masks, shift them by specified amounts and
1614 test whether the results are in any of a set of specified ranges.
1615 The specification of what to extract is general enough to skip over
1616 headers with lengths stored in the packet, as in IP or TCP header
1617 lengths.
