     31  1.1  degroote The
     32  1.1  degroote .Nm
     33  1.1  degroote command allows state information created for NAT entries and rules using
     34  1.2       wiz .Dq keep state
     35  1.1  degroote to be locked (modification prevented) and then saved to disk,
     36  1.1  degroote allowing for the system to experience a reboot, followed by the restoration
     37  1.1  degroote of that information, resulting in connections not being interrupted.
