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.

278 There is a commonly-used extension to IRC called
279 Direct Client-to-Client Protocol (DCC). This enables users to send
280 files to each other, and also chat to each other without the need
281 of a server. DCC Sending is used anywhere you send files over IRC,
282 and DCC Chat is most commonly used by Eggdrop bots. If you are
283 using NAT, this extension will enable you to send files and initiate
284 chats. Note that you do NOT need this extension to get files or
285 have others initiate chats, or everything else in IRC.

1442 Multiport matching allows you to match TCP or UDP packets based on
1443 a series of source or destination ports: normally a rule can only

1653 lengths.
