-1.Basic Installation
-====================
-
- To compile and install 'conntrackd' just follow the classical steps:
-
-	$ ./configure
-	$ make
-	# make install
-	# mkdir /etc/conntrackd/
-
-2.1. Synchronization Mode
-=========================
-
- Conntrackd can replicate the status of the connections that are currently
- being processed by your stateful firewall based on Linux. This section
- describes how to setup the daemon in synchronization mode:
-
-2.1.1. Requirements
-
- You have to install the following software in order to get conntrackd working,
- make sure that you have installed them correctly before going forward:
-
- o linux kernel version >= 2.6.18 (http://www.kernel.org) with support for:
-     - connection tracking system (quite obvious ;)
-     - nfnetlink
-     - ctnetlink (ip_conntrack_netlink)
-     - connection tracking event notification API
-
- o libnfnetlink: the netfilter netlink library
-
-     Since conntrackd version 0.9.2 you can used the official release availble at
-     http://www.netfilter.org/projects/libnfnetlink/files/
-
-     Up to conntrackd version 0.9.1 use the unofficial release available at the
-     download section
-
- o libnetfilter_conntrack: the netfilter conntrack library
-
-     Since  conntrackd version 0.9.2 you can used the official release availble at
-     http://www.netfilter.org/projects/libnetfilter_conntrack/files/
-
-     Up to conntrackd version 0.9.1 use the unnoficial release available at the
-     download section
-
- o Keepalived version 1.x (http://www.keepalived.org)
-     check if your distribution comes with a recent version
-
-2.1.2. Configuration
-
- 1) Setting up keepalived
-
-    There is an example file available inside the conntrackd tarball:
-
-    For node 1: conntrackd-x.x.x/examples/sync/node1/keepalived.conf
-    For node 2: conntrackd-x.x.x/examples/sync/node2/keepalived.conf
-
-    These files can be used to set up a simple VRRP cluster composed of
-    two machines that hold the virtual IPs 192.168.0.100 on eth0 and
-    192.168.1.100 on eth1.
-
-    If you are not familiar with keepalived, please read the official
-    docs available at http://www.keepalived.org
-
-    Please, make sure that keepalived is correctly working before passing
-    to step 2)
-
- 2) Setting up conntrackd
-
-    To setup 'conntrackd' in synchronization mode, you have to put the
-    configuration file in the directory /etc/conntrackd.
-
-    On node 1:
-	# cp examples/sync/_type_/node1/conntrackd.conf /etc/conntrackd.conf
-
-    On node 2:
-        # cp examples/sync/_type_/node1/conntrackd.conf /etc/conntrackd.conf
-
-    Where _type_ is the synchronization type selected, currently there are
-    two: the persistent mode and the NACK mode. The persistent mode consumes
-    more resources than the NACK mode, however the NACK mode is still
-    experimental
-
-    Do not forget to edit the files in order to adapt them to the
-    setting that you are deploying.
-
-    Note: If you don't want to put the config file under /etc/conntrackd,
-    just tell conntrackd where to find it passing the option -C
-
- 3) Running conntrackd
-
-    Conntrackd can run in console mode, in that case just type 'conntrackd',
-    otherwise, if you want to run it in daemon mode the type 'conntrackd -d'.
-
- 4) Checking that conntrackd is working fine
-
-    Conntrackd comes with several facilities to check its status:
-
-    - Dump the cache of connections that are currently being processed by
-      this node (aka. internal cache):
-
-    # conntrackd -i
-
-    - Dump the cache of connections that has been transfered from
-      others active nodes in the network (aka. external cache)
-
-    # conntrackd -e
-
-    - Dump statistics collected by the replication daemon:
-
-    # conntrackd -s
-
- 5) Setting up interaction with keepalived
-
-    If keepalived detects the failure of the active node, then it designates
-    a candidate node that will replace the failing active. On such event,
-    the external cache, eg. the cache that contains the connections processed
-    by other nodes, must be commited. To commit the external cache, just type:
-
-    # conntrackd -c
-
-    See that keepalived provides a shell script interface to interact with
-    other programs, so we can automate the process of commiting the external
-    cache by introducing the following line in the keepalived file:
-
-    notify_master /etc/conntrackd/script_master.sh
-
-    The script 'script_master.sh' just the following:
-
-    #!/bin/sh
-    /usr/sbin/conntrackd -c
-
-    Therefore, on failure event, the candidate node takes over the virtual
-    IPs and the connections that the failing active was processing. Observe
-    that this file differs for the NACK mode.
-
- 6) Disable TCP window tracking
-
- Until the appropiate patches don't go into kernel mainline, you will have
- to disable TCP window tracking, consider this as a temporary solution:
-
-    # echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_tcp_be_liberal
-
-2.2. Statistics mode
-====================
-
- Conntrackd can also run as statistics daemon, if you are not interested in
- this mode, just skip it. It is not required in order to get the
- synchronization mode working. This section details how to setup the daemon
- in statistics mode:
-
-2.2.1. Requirements
-
- You have to install the following software in order to get conntrackd working,
- make sure that you have them installed correctly before going forward:
-
- o linux kernel version >= 2.6.18 (http://www.kernel.org) with support for:
-      - connection tracking system
-      - nfnetlink
-      - ctnetlink (ip_conntrack_netlink)
-      - connection tracking event notification API
-
- o libnfnetlink: the netfilter netlink library
-
-     Since conntrackd version 0.9.2 you can used the official release availble at
-     http://www.netfilter.org/projects/libnfnetlink/files/
-
-     Up to conntrackd version 0.9.1 use the unofficial release available at the
-     download section
-
- o libnetfilter_conntrack: the netfilter conntrack library
-
-     Since  conntrackd version 0.9.2 you can used the official release availble at
-     http://www.netfilter.org/projects/libnetfilter_conntrack/files/
-
-     Up to conntrackd version 0.9.1 use the unnoficial release available at the
-     download section
-
-2.2.2. Configuration
-
- Setting up conntrackd in statistics mode is rather easy. Just copy the
- configuration file
-
-    # cp examples/stats/conntrackd.conf /etc/conntrackd.conf
-
-2.2.3. Running conntrackd in statistics mode
-
- To run conntrackd in statistics mode:
-
-    # conntrackd -S
-
- Alternatively, you can run conntrackd in daemon mode:
-
-    # conntrackd -S -d
-
- In order to dump the statistics, just type:
-
-    # conntrackd -s
