+These extensions can be used if `\-\-protocol tcp' is specified. It
+provides the following options:
+.TP
+[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-source\-port\fP,\fB\-\-sport\fP \fIport\fP[\fB:\fP\fIport\fP]
+Source port or port range specification. This can either be a service
+name or a port number. An inclusive range can also be specified,
+using the format \fIfirst\fP\fB:\fP\fIlast\fP.
+If the first port is omitted, "0" is assumed; if the last is omitted,
+"65535" is assumed.
+If the first port is greater than the second one they will be swapped.
+The flag
+\fB\-\-sport\fP
+is a convenient alias for this option.
+.TP
+[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-destination\-port\fP,\fB\-\-dport\fP \fIport\fP[\fB:\fP\fIport\fP]
+Destination port or port range specification.  The flag
+\fB\-\-dport\fP
+is a convenient alias for this option.
+.TP
+[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-tcp\-flags\fP \fImask\fP \fIcomp\fP
+Match when the TCP flags are as specified.  The first argument \fImask\fP is the
+flags which we should examine, written as a comma-separated list, and
+the second argument \fIcomp\fP is a comma-separated list of flags which must be
+set.  Flags are:
+.BR "SYN ACK FIN RST URG PSH ALL NONE" .
+Hence the command
+.nf
+ iptables \-A FORWARD \-p tcp \-\-tcp\-flags SYN,ACK,FIN,RST SYN
+.fi
+will only match packets with the SYN flag set, and the ACK, FIN and
+RST flags unset.
+.TP
+[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-syn\fP
+Only match TCP packets with the SYN bit set and the ACK,RST and FIN bits
+cleared.  Such packets are used to request TCP connection initiation;
+for example, blocking such packets coming in an interface will prevent
+incoming TCP connections, but outgoing TCP connections will be
+unaffected.
+It is equivalent to \fB\-\-tcp\-flags SYN,RST,ACK,FIN SYN\fP.
+If the "!" flag precedes the "\-\-syn", the sense of the
+option is inverted.
+.TP
+[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-tcp\-option\fP \fInumber\fP
+Match if TCP option set.
