ipmasq-modules5

Configuration file used to set up ip masquerading kernel modules

Usage

/etc/ipmasq/modules

Overview

This manual page documents the configuration files used by the ipmasq-kmod command.

The /etc/ipmasq/modules configuration file utilizes a simple syntax. Shell-script style comments are used (from a # to the end of line). Remaining lines are directives to load a particular kernel module, one directive per line. These directives are the names of the kernel modules to load (minus the ip_masq_ prefix). Any additional parameters are considered to be parameters to the kernel module. The special directive all indicates that all ip_masq_* modules in the /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ipv4 directory will be loaded. The all directive ends processing of the /etc/ipmasq/modules configuration file.
