Hi Olivier,

See the ipfw(8) section PACKET FLOW .. it's all there, with examples of 
how to separate layer2 from layer3 traffic, inbound and outbound.

ipfw and bridged interface

2008-12-03 Thread Olivier Nicole
Hi,

I remember that I read, many years ago, something about the way ipfw
interacts with the IP stack. AFAIR, ipfw would be called on layer 2,
where only certain rules would be applied, then on the IP layer where
other rules would apply. Is it still the case? Where can I find th
description?

Best regards,

Olivier
