     35  1.1  degroote The
     36  1.1  degroote .Nm
     37  1.1  degroote command allows state information created for NAT entries and rules using
     38  1.1  degroote .Pa keep state
     39  1.1  degroote to be locked (modification prevented) and then saved to disk,
     40  1.1  degroote allowing for the system to experience a reboot, followed by the restoration
     41  1.1  degroote of that information, resulting in connections not being interrupted.

     50  1.1  degroote Provides a verbose description of what's being done.
     51  1.1  degroote .It Fl u
     52  1.1  degroote Unlock state tables in the kernel.
     53  1.1  degroote .It Fl l
     54  1.1  degroote Lock state tables in the kernel.
     55  1.1  degroote .It Fl r
     56  1.1  degroote Read information in from the specified file and load it into the
     57  1.1  degroote kernel.  This requires the state tables to have already been locked
     58  1.1  degroote and does not change the lock once complete.
     59  1.1  degroote .It Fl w
     60  1.1  degroote Write information out to the specified file and from the kernel.
     61  1.1  degroote This requires the state tables to have already been locked
     62  1.1  degroote and does not change the lock once complete.
     63  1.1  degroote .It Fl R
     64  1.1  degroote Restores  information in from the specified file and load it into the
     65  1.1  degroote kernel.  The state tables are locked at the beginning of this operation and
     66  1.1  degroote unlocked once complete.
     67  1.1  degroote .It Fl W
     68  1.1  degroote Write information out to the specified file and from the kernel.  The state
     69  1.1  degroote tables are locked at the beginning of this operation and unlocked once
     70  1.1  degroote complete.
