NAME

       modules - Shorewall file

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/share/shorewall/modules

DESCRIPTION

       This file specifies which kernel modules Shorewall will load before
       trying to determine your iptables/kernel's capabilities. Each record in
       the file has the following format:

       loadmodule modulename [moduleoption...]

       The modulename names a kernel module (without suffix). Shorewall will
       search for modules based on your MODULESDIR and MODULE_SUFFIX settings
       in shorewall.conf[1](8). The moduleoptions are passed to modprobe (if
       installed) or to insmod.

       The /usr/share/shorewall/modules file contains a large number of
       modules. Users are encouraged to copy the file to
       /etc/shorewall/modules and modify the copy to load only the modules
       required..if n .sp
           Note
           If you build monolithic kernels and have not installed
           module-init-tools, then create an empty /etc/shorewall/modules
           file; that will prevent Shorewall from trying to load modules at
           all.

EXAMPLE

       loadmodule ip_conntrack_ftp ports=21,221
