Hans-G?nter@24672 3 networks, (TCP/UDP) port numbers, MAC addresses, interface names or
Hans-G?nter@24672 4 combinations of them in a way, which ensures lightning speed when matching
Hans-G?nter@24672 5 an entry against a set.

Hans-G?nter@24672 11 * dynamically update iptables rules against IP addresses or ports without
Hans-G?nter@24672 12 performance penalty;
Hans-G?nter@24672 13 * express complex IP address and ports based rulesets with one single
Hans-G?nter@24672 14 iptables rule and benefit from the speed of IP sets
