.Sh NAME
.Nm ipfirewall
.Nd IP packet filter and traffic accounting
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <sys/types.h>
.Fd #include <sys/queue.h>
.Fd #include <netinet/in.h>
.Fd #include <netinet/ip_fw.h>
.Ft int
.Fn setsockopt raw_socket IPPROTO_IP "ipfw option" "struct ipfw" size
.Sh DESCRIPTION
Ipfirewall (alias ipfw) is a system facility which allows filtering,
redirecting, and other operations on IP packets travelling through
system interfaces. Packets are matched by applying an ordered list
of pattern rules against each packet until a match is found, at
which point the corresponding action is taken. Rules are numbered
from 1 to 65534; multiple rules may share the same number.
.Pp
There is one rule that always exists, rule number 65535. This rule
normally causes all packets to be dropped. Hence, any packet which does not
match a lower numbered rule will be dropped.  However, a kernel compile
time option
.Dq IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT
allows the administrator to change this fixed rule to permit everything.
.Pp
The value passed to 
.Fn setsockopt
is a struct ip_fw describing the rule (see below). In some cases
(such as IP_FW_DEL), only the rule number is significant.
.Sh COMMANDS
The following socket options are used to manage the rule list:
.Pp
IP_FW_ADD inserts the rule into the rule list.
.Pp
IP_FW_DEL deletes all rules having the matching rule number.
.Pp
IP_FW_GET returns the (first) rule having the matching rule number.
.Pp
IP_FW_ZERO zeros the statistics associated with all rules having the
matching rule number. If the rule number is zero, all rules are zeroed.
.Pp
IP_FW_FLUSH removes all rules (except 65535).
.Pp
When the kernel security level is greater than 2, only IP_FW_GET
is allowed.
.Sh RULE STRUCTURE
Rules are described by the following structure:

.Sh RULE ACTIONS
Each rule has an action described by the IP_FW_F_COMMAND bits in the
flags word:

  IP_FW_F_DENY          - drop packet
  IP_FW_F_REJECT        - drop packet; send rejection via ICMP or TCP
  IP_FW_F_ACCEPT        - accept packet
  IP_FW_F_COUNT         - increment counters; continue matching
  IP_FW_F_DIVERT        - divert packet to a divert(4) socket
  IP_FW_F_TEE           - copy packet to a divert(4) socket; continue
  IP_FW_F_SKIPTO        - skip to rule number fu_skipto_rule
.Pp
In the case of IP_FW_F_REJECT, if the fu_reject_code is a number
from 0 to 255, then an ICMP unreachable packet is sent back to the
original packet's source IP address, with the corresponding code.
Otherwise, the value must be 256 and the protocol IPPROTO_TCP,
in which case a TCP reset packet is sent instead.
.Pp
With IP_FW_F_SKIPTO, all succeeding rules having rule number less
than fu_skipto_rule are skipped.
.Sh KERNEL OPTIONS
Options in the kernel configuration file:
  IPFIREWALL               - enable ipfirewall.
  IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE       - enable firewall output
  IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT - limit firewall output
  DIVERT                   - enable divert(4) sockets.
.Pp
When packets match a rule with the IP_FW_F_PRN bit set, a message
is logged to the console if IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE has been enabled;
IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT limits the maximum number of times each
rule can cause a log message. These variables are also
available via the
.Xr sysctl 3
interface.
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS

[EINVAL]  The IP option field was improperly formed; an option
          field was shorter than the minimum value or longer than
          the option buffer provided. A structural error in 
          ip_fw structure occurred (n_src_p+n_dst_p too big,
          ports set for ALL/ICMP protocols etc.). An invalid
          rule number was used.

.Sh BUGS
The ``tee'' rule is not yet implemented (currently it has no effect).
.Pp
This man page still needs work.
.Sh HISTORY
The ipfw facility was initially written as package to BSDI
by Daniel Boulet <danny@BouletFermat.ab.ca>.
It has been heavily modified and ported to FreeBSD
by Ugen J.S.Antsilevich <ugen@NetVision.net.il>.
.Pp
Several enhancements added by Archie Cobbs <archie@whistle.com>.
