118 bool "Network packet filtering framework (Netfilter)"
119 ---help---
120 Netfilter is a framework for filtering and mangling network packets
121 that pass through your Linux box.
122
123 The most common use of packet filtering is to run your Linux box as
124 a firewall protecting a local network from the Internet. The type of
125 firewall provided by this kernel support is called a "packet
126 filter", which means that it can reject individual network packets
127 based on type, source, destination etc. The other kind of firewall,
128 a "proxy-based" one, is more secure but more intrusive and more
129 bothersome to set up; it inspects the network traffic much more
130 closely, modifies it and has knowledge about the higher level
131 protocols, which a packet filter lacks. Moreover, proxy-based
132 firewalls often require changes to the programs running on the local
133 clients. Proxy-based firewalls don't need support by the kernel, but
134 they are often combined with a packet filter, which only works if
135 you say Y here.
136
137 You should also say Y here if you intend to use your Linux box as
138 the gateway to the Internet for a local network of machines without
139 globally valid IP addresses. This is called "masquerading": if one
140 of the computers on your local network wants to send something to
141 the outside, your box can "masquerade" as that computer, i.e. it
142 forwards the traffic to the intended outside destination, but
143 modifies the packets to make it look like they came from the
144 firewall box itself. It works both ways: if the outside host
145 replies, the Linux box will silently forward the traffic to the
146 correct local computer. This way, the computers on your local net
147 are completely invisible to the outside world, even though they can
148 reach the outside and can receive replies. It is even possible to
149 run globally visible servers from within a masqueraded local network
150 using a mechanism called portforwarding. Masquerading is also often
151 called NAT (Network Address Translation).
152
153 Another use of Netfilter is in transparent proxying: if a machine on
154 the local network tries to connect to an outside host, your Linux
155 box can transparently forward the traffic to a local server,
156 typically a caching proxy server.
157
158 Yet another use of Netfilter is building a bridging firewall. Using
159 a bridge with Network packet filtering enabled makes iptables "see"
160 the bridged traffic. For filtering on the lower network and Ethernet
161 protocols over the bridge, use ebtables (under bridge netfilter
162 configuration).
163
164 Various modules exist for netfilter which replace the previous
165 masquerading (ipmasqadm), packet filtering (ipchains), transparent
166 proxying, and portforwarding mechanisms. Please see
167 <file:Documentation/Changes> under "iptables" for the location of
168 these packages.

170 masquerading (ipmasqadm), packet filtering (ipchains), transparent
171 proxying, and portforwarding mechanisms. Please see
172 <file:Documentation/Changes> under "iptables" for the location of
173 these packages.

451 The failover module provides a generic interface for paravirtual
452 drivers to register a netdev and a set of ops with a failover
453 instance. The ops are used as event handlers that get called to
454 handle netdev register/unregister/link change/name change events
455 on slave pci ethernet devices with the same mac address as the
456 failover netdev. This enables paravirtual drivers to use a
457 VF as an accelerated low latency datapath. It also allows live
458 migration of VMs with direct attached VFs by failing over to the
459 paravirtual datapath when the VF is unplugged.
