To enable PF support, you can either load it as a module (kldload pf), or compile it into your custom kernel. The startup scripts of the system support loading the module, if necessary, so to use PF you can just enable it in `/etc/rc.conf', i.e. with something like: pf_rules="/etc/pf.conf" pf_enable="YES" pflog_enable="YES" Then, all you have to do is tune your ruleset in `/etc/pf.conf', and off you go :) One tricky point that you should pay attention to is that when PF is used as a loadable kernel module you cannot use ALTQ for traffic shaping. To be able to use the ALTQ features, you have to build a custom kernel that includes both PF and ALTQ options.
