+
+## Overview
+
+This integration monitors the connection tracking mechanism of Netfilter in the Linux Kernel.
+
+
+
+This collector is supported on all platforms.
+
+This collector supports collecting metrics from multiple instances of this integration, including remote instances.
+
+
+### Default Behavior
+
+#### Auto-Detection
+
+This integration doesn't support auto-detection.
+
+#### Limits
+
+The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection.
+
+#### Performance Impact
+
+The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system.
+
+
+## Metrics
+
+Metrics grouped by *scope*.
+
+The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.
+
+
+
+### Per Conntrack instance
+
+
+
+This scope has no labels.
+
+Metrics:
+
+| Metric | Dimensions | Unit |
+|:------|:----------|:----|
+| netfilter.conntrack_sockets | connections | active connections |
+| netfilter.conntrack_new | new, ignore, invalid | connections/s |
+| netfilter.conntrack_changes | inserted, deleted, delete_list | changes/s |
+| netfilter.conntrack_expect | created, deleted, new | expectations/s |
+| netfilter.conntrack_search | searched, restarted, found | searches/s |
+| netfilter.conntrack_errors | icmp_error, error_failed, drop, early_drop | events/s |
+
+
+
+## Alerts
+
+
+The following alerts are available:
+
+| Alert name | On metric | Description |
+|:------------|:----------|:------------|
+| [ netfilter_conntrack_full ](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/src/health/health.d/netfilter.conf) | netfilter.conntrack_sockets | netfilter connection tracker table size utilization |
