CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT - nebbors - 08-15-2017
Need module? Do I need to recompile myself or is it easier than that?

No one?

Your question is too vague.
... are we talking about a Python module ( sometimes VERY easy )?
... are we talking about a kernel module ( sometimes extremely difficult )?
... or perhaps we're discussing a C module ( usually easy and almost always automated )?

good point. kernel module required for a docker compile.

You will need the kernel header files for sure; if the module (name?) support has already been added to the kernel you can compile the module source and then put the module blahblah.so in the /lib directory, and then insmod it; however, if the module support is NOT in the kernel yet , you will also need to recompile the kernel ( a pain in the arse but doable ) and then decide whether to statically link it, or insmod it.
Some of this depends on your skill set too...
