| .SH MATCH EXTENSIONS |
| iptables can use extended packet matching modules |
| with the \fB\-m\fP or \fB\-\-match\fP |
| options, followed by the matching module name; after these, various |
| extra command line options become available, depending on the specific |
| module. You can specify multiple extended match modules in one line, |
| and you can use the \fB\-h\fP or \fB\-\-help\fP |
| options after the module has been specified to receive help specific |
| to that module. The extended match modules are evaluated in the order |
| they are specified in the rule. |
| .PP |
| If the \fB\-p\fP or \fB\-\-protocol\fP was specified and if and only if an |
| unknown option is encountered, iptables will try load a match module of the |
| same name as the protocol, to try making the option available. |
