libxt_CT: add --timeout option
This patch adds the --timeout option to allow to attach timeout policy objects to flows, eg. iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -s 1.1.1.1 -p tcp \ -j CT --timeout custom-tcp-policy You need the nfct(8) tool which is available at: http://git.netfilter.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=nfct.git To define the cttimeout policies. Example of usage: nfct timeout add custom-tcp-policy inet tcp established 1000 The new nfct tool also requires libnetfilter_cttimeout: http://git.netfilter.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=libnetfilter_cttimeout.git Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
