| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 1 The conntrack-tools are a set of tools targeted at system administrators. |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 2 They are conntrack, the userspace command line interface, and conntrackd, |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 3 the userspace daemon. |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 4 The tool conntrack provides a full featured interface that is intended |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 5 to replace the old /proc/net/ip_conntrack interface. |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 6 Using conntrack, you can view and manage the in-kernel connection tracking |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 7 state table from userspace. |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 8 On the other hand, conntrackd covers the specific aspects of stateful |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 9 firewalls to enable highly available scenarios, and can be used as |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 10 statistics collector as well. |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 11 |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 12 Since 1.2.0, the conntrack-tools includes the nfct command line utility. |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 13 This utility only supports the nfnetlink_cttimeout by now. |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 14 In the long run, we expect that it will replace conntrack by providing |
| Hans-G?nter@24435 | 15 a syntax similar to nftables. |
