+
+                <para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
+                <filename>.target</filename> encodes information about
+                a target unit of systemd, which is used for grouping
+                units and as well-known synchronization points during
+                start-up.</para>
+
+                <para>This unit type has no specific options. See
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+                for the common options of all unit configuration
+                files. The common configuration items are configured
+                in the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. A
+                seperate [Target] section does not exist, since no
+                target-specific options may be configured.</para>
+
+                <para>Target units do not offer any additional
+                functionality on top of the generic functionality
+                provided by units. They exist merely to group units via dependencies
+                (useful as boot targets), and to establish
+                standardized names for synchronization points used in
+                dependencies between units. Among other things target
+                units are a more flexible replacement for SysV
+                runlevels in the classic SysV init system. (And in
+                fact for compatibility reasons there exist special
+                target units such as
+                <filename>runlevel3.target</filename> that are used by
+                the SysV runlevel compatibility code in systemd. See
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
