+       ---help---
+         The IMQ device(s) is used as placeholder for QoS queueing
+         disciplines. Every packet entering/leaving the IP stack can be
+         directed through the IMQ device where it's enqueued/dequeued to the
+         attached qdisc. This allows you to treat network devices as classes
+         and distribute bandwidth among them. Iptables is used to specify
+         through which IMQ device, if any, packets travel.

+
+         IMQ can work in any of the following ways:
+
+             PREROUTING   |      POSTROUTING
+         -----------------|-------------------
+         #1  After NAT    |      After NAT

+         #4  Before NAT   |      Before NAT
+
+         The default behavior is to hook before NAT on PREROUTING
+         and after NAT on POSTROUTING (#3).
+
+         This settings are specially usefull when trying to use IMQ
+         to shape NATed clients.
