The CT target allows to set parameters for a packet or its associated connection. The target attaches a "template" connection tracking entry to the packet, which is then used by the conntrack core when initializing a new ct entry. This target is thus only valid in the "raw" table. .TP \fB\-\-notrack\fP Disables connection tracking for this packet. .TP \fB\-\-helper\fP \fIname\fP Use the helper identified by \fIname\fP for the connection. This is more flexible than loading the conntrack helper modules with preset ports. .TP \fB\-\-ctevents\fP \fIevent\fP[\fB,\fP...] Only generate the specified conntrack events for this connection. Possible event types are: \fBnew\fP, \fBrelated\fP, \fBdestroy\fP, \fBreply\fP, \fBassured\fP, \fBprotoinfo\fP, \fBhelper\fP, \fBmark\fP (this refers to the ctmark, not nfmark), \fBnatseqinfo\fP, \fBsecmark\fP (ctsecmark). .TP \fB\-\-expevents\fP \fIevent\fP[\fB,\fP...] Only generate the specified expectation events for this connection. Possible event types are: \fBnew\fP. .TP \fB\-\-zone\fP \fIid\fP Assign this packet to zone \fIid\fP and only have lookups done in that zone. By default, packets have zone 0. .TP \fB\-\-timeout\fP \fIname\fP Use the timeout policy identified by \fIname\fP for the connection. This is provides more flexible timeout policy definition than global timeout values available at /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_*_timeout_*.
