+ '1000 packets per second for every host in 192.168.0.0/16'
+.IP
+ '100 packets per second for every service of 192.168.1.1'
+.P
+with a single iptables rule.

+.TP
+.BI "--hashlimit-burst " "num"

+.TP
+.BI "--hashlimit-mode " "dstip,srcip,dstport,srcport"

+.TP
+.BI "--hashlimit-name " "foo"

+.TP
+.BI "--hashlimit-htable-size " "num"
