 644           As opposed to `limit', this match dynamically creates a hash table
 645           of limit buckets, based on your selection of source/destination
 646           addresses and/or ports.
 647
 648           It enables you to express policies like `10kpps for any given
 649           destination address' or `500pps from any given source address'
 650           with a single rule.
