40 This option makes it possible to send different netlink messages
41 to tasks depending on whether the task is a compat task or not. To
42 achieve this, you need to set skb_shinfo(skb)->frag_list to the
43 compat skb before sending the skb, the netlink code will sort out
44 which message to actually pass to the task.

159menuconfig NETFILTER
160 bool "Network packet filtering framework (Netfilter)"
161 help
162 Netfilter is a framework for filtering and mangling network packets
163 that pass through your Linux box.
164
165 The most common use of packet filtering is to run your Linux box as
166 a firewall protecting a local network from the Internet. The type of
167 firewall provided by this kernel support is called a "packet
168 filter", which means that it can reject individual network packets
169 based on type, source, destination etc. The other kind of firewall,
170 a "proxy-based" one, is more secure but more intrusive and more
171 bothersome to set up; it inspects the network traffic much more
172 closely, modifies it and has knowledge about the higher level
173 protocols, which a packet filter lacks. Moreover, proxy-based
174 firewalls often require changes to the programs running on the local
175 clients. Proxy-based firewalls don't need support by the kernel, but
176 they are often combined with a packet filter, which only works if
177 you say Y here.
178
179 You should also say Y here if you intend to use your Linux box as
180 the gateway to the Internet for a local network of machines without
181 globally valid IP addresses. This is called "masquerading": if one
182 of the computers on your local network wants to send something to
183 the outside, your box can "masquerade" as that computer, i.e. it
184 forwards the traffic to the intended outside destination, but
185 modifies the packets to make it look like they came from the
186 firewall box itself. It works both ways: if the outside host
187 replies, the Linux box will silently forward the traffic to the
188 correct local computer. This way, the computers on your local net
189 are completely invisible to the outside world, even though they can
190 reach the outside and can receive replies. It is even possible to
191 run globally visible servers from within a masqueraded local network
192 using a mechanism called portforwarding. Masquerading is also often
193 called NAT (Network Address Translation).
194
195 Another use of Netfilter is in transparent proxying: if a machine on
196 the local network tries to connect to an outside host, your Linux
197 box can transparently forward the traffic to a local server,
198 typically a caching proxy server.
199
200 Yet another use of Netfilter is building a bridging firewall. Using
201 a bridge with Network packet filtering enabled makes iptables "see"
202 the bridged traffic. For filtering on the lower network and Ethernet
203 protocols over the bridge, use ebtables (under bridge netfilter
204 configuration).
205
206 Various modules exist for netfilter which replace the previous
207 masquerading (ipmasqadm), packet filtering (ipchains), transparent
208 proxying, and portforwarding mechanisms. Please see
209 <file:Documentation/Changes> under "iptables" for the location of
210 these packages.

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