When this option is set for a rule, the Linux kernel will print some information on all matching packets (like most IP/IPv6 header fields) via the kernel log -(where it can be read with -.I dmesg -or -.IR syslogd (8)). +(where it can be read with \fIdmesg(1)\fP or read in the syslog). +.PP This is a "non-terminating target", i.e. rule traversal continues at the next rule.
