pknock match implements so-called Port Knocking, a stealthy system
for network authentication: client sends packets to selected, closed
ports on target machine in a specific sequence. The target machine
(which has pknock match rule set up) then decides whether to
unblock or block (again) its protected port with listening
service. This can be, for instance, used to avoid brute force attacks
on ssh or ftp services.
