1This module matches packets based on some statistic condition.
2It supports two distinct modes settable with the 
3\fB\-\-mode\fP
4option.
5.PP
6Supported options:
7.TP
8\fB\-\-mode\fP \fImode\fP
9Set the matching mode of the matching rule, supported modes are
10.B random
11and
12.B nth. 
13.TP
14[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-probability\fP \fIp\fP
15Set the probability from 0 to 1 for a packet to be randomly
16matched. It works only with the
17.B random
18mode.
19.TP
20[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-every\fP \fIn\fP
21Match one packet every nth packet. It works only with the
22.B nth
23mode (see also the 
24\fB\-\-packet\fP
25option).
26.TP
27\fB\-\-packet\fP \fIp\fP
28Set the initial counter value (0 <= p <= n\-1, default 0) for the
29.B nth 
30mode.
