pfsrctrpl seems to translate to src-nodes

# pfctl -sm
states        hard limit   200000
src-nodes     hard limit    10000
frags         hard limit     5000
tables        hard limit     1000
table-entries hard limit   100000

I can change the src-nodes limit by editing pf.cfg with the following
set limit { src-nodes 23456 }
and then running
pfctl -f pf.cfg

this shows the following changes
src-nodes     hard limit    23456
and
pfsrctrpl:                124,    23467,     2635,     7378,   650614,
336039

but I lose access to the firewall.
When I reload the firewall it resets the src-nodes

In addition to the above, I added the following line to the top <System>
section of the /cf/conf/config.xml
<max-src-nodes>23456</max-src-nodes>

but it still didn't work.
