   An update that has two optional fixes can now be installed.

Description:


   This update provides ipset, which is a utility for
   administering IP sets.  Depending on the type, an IP set
   may store IP addresses, (TCP/UDP) port  numbers or IP
   addresses with MAC addresses in a way, which ensures
   lightning speed when matching an entry against a set.

   ipset can:

   * store multiple IP addresses or port numbers and match
   against the collection by iptables at one swoop
   * dynamically update iptables rules against IP
   addresses or ports without performance penalty
   * express complex IP address and ports based rulesets
   with one single iptables rule and benefit from the speed of
   IP sets.

Indications:

   Every interested user can install these packages.

   Please reboot the system after installing this update.
