 | | To dynamically load ipfw one can simply issue the following command: (root@nu)~># kldload ipfw (root@nu)~># Enabling ipfirewall(4) statically, the equivalent would be to add the following line into your kernel configuration file: options IPFIREWALL Then, rebuilding and rebooting would enable ipfirewall(4) in the kernel statically. |
 | | If you wish to dynamically load ipfirewall(4) remotely, anyhow, the follow command is recommended: (root@nu)~># kldload ipfw && \ ipfw -q add 65000 allow all from any to any (root@nu)~># This will automatically set a rule to allow all traffic instead of blocking it, so you don't cut yourself off from your remote box. |
 | | The first column is the rule number, followed by the number of outgoing matched packets, followed by the number of incoming matched packets, and finally followed by the rule itself. |
