The nfct command allows creating a custom timeout policy. The man page

How do you attach it when the flow is created using the conntrack API with
NFCT_Q_CREATE, or attach to a flow that already exists?

You have to use libnetfilter_cttimeout.


I can see how to use libnetfilter_cttimeout to create a timeout policy pass it to the kernel.

But I might have previously created some flow with libnetfilter_conntrack e.g.:

udp 17 142 src=192.168.1.5 dst=203.0.113.10 sport=54422 dport=2345 src=203.0.113.10 dst=198.51.100.50 sport=2345 dport=54422 [ASSURED] mark=0 use=1

How can I change the timeout policy for this flow to use the newly created one?

I would have expected to see something like

	ATTR_TIMEOUT_POLICY,	/* string */

in "enum nf_conntrack_attr" in libnetfilter_conntrack.h, but no luck.

What am I missing?
