In linux kernel since version 2.6.15 (release Date: 2006-01-02)
If this option is enabled, the connection tracking code will
keep per-flow packet and byte counters.
Those counters can be used for flow-based accounting or the
`connbytes' match.
Please note that currently this option only sets a default state.
You may change it at boot time with nf_conntrack.acct=0/1 kernel
parameter or by loading the nf_conntrack module with acct=0/1.
You may also disable/enable it on a running system with:
sysctl net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct=0/1
This option will be removed in 2.6.29.
If unsure, say `N'.
