+	  NetBIOS name service requests are sent as broadcast messages from an
+	  unprivileged port and responded to with unicast messages to the
+	  same port. This make them hard to firewall properly because connection
+	  tracking doesn't deal with broadcasts. This helper tracks locally
+	  originating NetBIOS name service requests and the corresponding
+	  responses. It relies on correct IP address configuration, specifically
+	  netmask and broadcast address. When properly configured, the output
+	  of "ip address show" should look similar to this:
+
+	  $ ip -4 address show eth0
+	  4: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
+	      inet 172.16.2.252/24 brd 172.16.2.255 scope global eth0
