.Sh DESCRIPTION
If used as shown in the first synopsis line, the
.Ar file
will be read line by line and applied as arguments to the
.Nm
command.
.Pp
Optionally, a preprocessor can be specified using
.Fl p Ar preproc
where
.Ar file
is to be piped through. Useful preprocessors include
.Xr cpp 1
and
.Xr m4 1 .
If
.Ar preproc
doesn't start with a slash as its first character, the usual
.Ev PATH
name search is performed. Care should be taken with this in environments
where not all filesystems are mounted (yet) by the time
.Nm
is being run (e. g. since they are mounted over NFS). Once
.Fl p
has been specified, optional
.Fl D
and
.Fl U
specifications can follow and will be passed on to the preprocessor.
This allows for flexible configuration files (like conditionalizing
them on the local hostname) and the use of macros to centralize
frequently required arguments like IP addresses.
.Pp
Each packet that has been received or is about to be sent goes through
the
.Nm
rules. In the case of a host acting as a gateway, packets that are
forwarded by the host are processed by
.Nm
twice
.Po
once when entering, and once when leaving
.Pc .
Each packet can be filtered based on the following information that is
associated with it:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -offset indent -compact -width xxxx
.It Receive Interface Pq Ar recv
Interface over which the packet was received
.It Transmit Interface Pq Ar xmit
Interface over which the packet would be transmitted
.It Incoming Pq Ar in
Packet was just received
.It Outgoing Pq Ar out
Packet would be transmitted
.It Source IP Address
Sender's IP Address
.It Destination IP Address
Target's IP Address

.It All TCP Flags Pq Ar tcpflags
One or more of the TCP flags: close connection
.Pq Ar fin ,

.Pq Ar ack ,
and
urgent
.Pq Ar urg

.El
.Pp
Note that may be dangerous to filter on the source IP address or
source TCP/UDP port because either or both could easily be spoofed.
.Pp
The
.Nm
code works by going through the rule-list for each packet
until a match is found.
All rules have two associated counters, a packet count and
a byte count.
These counters are updated when a packet matches the rule.
.Pp
If a rule has the optional
.Dq prob match_probability
specifier, where the match_probability is a floating point number
between 0 and 1, a match is only declared with the specified
probability. This can be useful for a number of applications
such as random packet drop or (in conjunction with
.Xr dummynet 4
) to simulate the effect of multiple paths leading to out-of-order
packet delivery.
.Pp
The rules are ordered by a
.Dq line-number
from 1 to 65534 that is used
to order and delete rules. Rules are tried in increasing order, and the
first rule that matches a packet applies.
Multiple rules may share the same number and apply in
the order in which they were added.
.Pp
If a rule is added without a number, it is numbered 100 higher than the highest
defined rule number, unless the highest defined rule number is 65435 or
greater, in which case new rules are given that same number.
.Pp
The delete operation deletes the first rule with number
.Ar number ,
if any.
.Pp
The list command prints out the current rule set.
.Pp
The show command is equivalent to
.Sq ipfw -a list .
.Pp
The zero operation zeroes the counters associated with rule number
.Ar number .
.Pp
The resetlog operation resets the logging counters associated with
rule number
.Ar number .
.Pp
The flush operation removes all rules.
.Pp
Any command beginning with a
.Sq # ,
or being all blank, is ignored.
.Pp
One rule is always present:
.Bd -literal -offset center
65535 deny all from any to any
.Ed
.Pp
This rule is the default policy, i.e., don't allow anything at all.
Your job in setting up rules is to modify this policy to match your
needs.
.Pp
However, if the kernel option
.Dq IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT
is active, the rule is instead:
.Bd -literal -offset center
65535 allow all from any to any
.Ed
.Pp
This variation lets everything pass through. This option should only be
activated in particular circumstances, such as if you use the firewall
system as an on-demand denial-of-service filter that is normally wide open.
.Pp
The following options are available:
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It Fl a
While listing, show counter values. See also
.Dq show
command.
.It Fl f
Don't ask for confirmation for commands that can cause problems if misused
(i.e. flush).
.Ar Note ,
if there is no tty associated with the process, this is implied.
.It Fl q
While adding, zeroing, resetlogging or flushing, be quiet about actions (implies
.Fl f Ns ).
This is useful for adjusting rules by executing multiple
.Nm
commands in a script
.Po
e.g.,
.Sq sh /etc/rc.firewall
.Pc ,
or by processing a file of many
.Nm
rules,
across a remote login session. If a flush is performed in normal
(verbose) mode (with the default kernel configuration), it prints a message.
Because all rules are flushed, the
message cannot be delivered to the login session. This causes the
remote login session to be closed and the remainder of the ruleset is
not processed. Access to the console is required to recover.
.It Fl t
While listing, show last match timestamp.
.It Fl N
Try to resolve addresses and service names in output.
.El
.Pp
.Ar action :
.Bl -hang -offset flag -width 1234567890123456
.It Ar allow
Allow packets that match rule.
The search terminates. Aliases are
.Ar pass ,
.Ar permit ,
and
.Ar accept .
.It Ar deny
Discard packets that match this rule.
The search terminates.
.Ar Drop
is an alias for
.Ar deny .
.It Ar reject
(Deprecated.) Discard packets that match this rule, and try to send an ICMP
host unreachable notice.
The search terminates.
.It Ar unreach code
Discard packets that match this rule, and try to send an ICMP
unreachable notice with code
.Ar code ,
where
.Ar code
is a number from zero to 255, or one of these aliases:
.Ar net ,
.Ar host ,
.Ar protocol ,
.Ar port ,
.Ar needfrag ,
.Ar srcfail ,
.Ar net-unknown ,
.Ar host-unknown ,
.Ar isolated ,
.Ar net-prohib ,
.Ar host-prohib ,
.Ar tosnet ,
.Ar toshost ,
.Ar filter-prohib ,
.Ar host-precedence ,
or
.Ar precedence-cutoff .
The search terminates.
.It Ar reset
TCP packets only. Discard packets that match this rule,
and try to send a TCP reset
.Pq RST
notice.
The search terminates.
.It Ar count
Update counters for all packets that match rule.
The search continues with the next rule.
.It Ar divert port
Divert packets that match this rule to the
.Xr divert 4
socket bound to port
.Ar port .
The search terminates.
.It Ar tee port
Send a copy of packets matching this rule to the
.Xr divert 4
socket bound to port
.Ar port .
The search continues with the next rule. This feature is not yet implemented.
.It Ar fwd ipaddr Op ,port
Change the next-hop on matching packets to
.Ar ipaddr ,
which can be an IP address in dotted quad or a host name.
If
.Ar ipaddr
is not a directly-reachable address, the route
as found in the local routing table for that IP is used
instead.
If
.Ar ipaddr
is a local address, then on a packet entering the system from a remote
host it will be diverted to
.Ar port
on the local machine, keeping the local address of the socket set
to the original IP address the packet was destined for. This is intended
for use with transparent proxy servers. If the IP is not
a local address then the port number (if specified) is ignored and
the rule only applies to packets leaving the system. This will
also map addresses to local ports when packets are generated locally.
The search terminates if this rule matches. If the port number is not
given then the port number in the packet is used, so that a packet for
an external machine port Y would be forwarded to local port Y. The kernel
must have been compiled with options IPFIREWALL_FORWARD.
.It Ar pipe pipe_nr
Pass packet to a
.Xr dummynet 4
``pipe'' (for bandwidth limitation, delay etc.). See the
.Xr dummynet 4
manpage for further information. The search terminates; however,
on exit from the pipe and if the sysctl variable
net.inet.ip.fw.one_pass is not set, the packet is passed again to
the firewall code starting from the next rule.
.It Ar skipto number
Skip all subsequent rules numbered less than
.Ar number .
The search continues with the first rule numbered
.Ar number
or higher.
.It Ar uid user
Match all TCP or UDP packets sent by or received for a
.Ar user .
A
.Ar user
may be matched by name or identification number.
.It Ar gid group
Match all TCP or UDP packets sent by or received for a
.Ar group .
A
.Ar group
may be matched by name or identification number.
.El
.Pp
If a packet matches more than one
.Ar divert
and/or
.Ar tee
rule, all but the last are ignored.
.Pp
If the kernel was compiled with
.Dv IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE ,
then when a packet matches a rule with the
.Ar log
keyword or a clear/resetlog is performed, a message will be logged to
.Xr syslogd 8 ,
or, if that fails, to the console. If the kernel was compiled with the
.Dv IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT
option, then by default logging will cease after the number
of packets specified by the option are received for that
particular chain entry. However, if
.Ar logamount Ar number
is used, that
.Ar number
will be the default logging limit rather than
.Dv IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT .
When this limit is reached, the limit and rule number will be logged.
Logging may then be re-enabled by clearing the logging counter
or the packet counter for that entry.
.Pp
The
.Xr syslogd 8
logging and the default log limit are adjustable dynamically through the
.Xr sysctl 8
interface in the MIB base of
.Dv net.inet.ip.fw .
.Pp
.Ar proto :
.Bl -hang -offset flag -width 1234567890123456
.It Ar ip
All packets match. The alias
.Ar all
has the same effect.
.It Ar tcp
Only TCP packets match.
.It Ar udp
Only UDP packets match.
.It Ar icmp
Only ICMP packets match.
.It Ar <number|name>
Only packets for the specified protocol matches (see
.Pa /etc/protocols
for a complete list).
.El
.Pp
.Ar src
and
.Ar dst :
.Bl -hang -offset flag
.It Ar <address/mask>
.Op Ar ports
.El
.Pp
The
.Em <address/mask>
may be specified as:
.Bl -hang -offset flag -width 1234567890123456
.It Ar ipno
An ipnumber of the form 1.2.3.4.
Only this exact ip number match the rule.
.It Ar ipno/bits
An ipnumber with a mask width of the form 1.2.3.4/24.
In this case all ip numbers from 1.2.3.0 to 1.2.3.255 will match.
.It Ar ipno:mask
An ipnumber with a mask width of the form 1.2.3.4:255.255.240.0.
In this case all ip numbers from 1.2.0.0 to 1.2.15.255 will match.
.El
.Pp
The sense of the match can be inverted by preceding an address with the
.Dq not
modifier, causing all other addresses to be matched instead. This
does not affect the selection of port numbers.
.Pp
With the TCP and UDP protocols, optional
.Em ports
may be specified as:
.Pp
.Bl -hang -offset flag
.It Ns {port|port-port} Ns Op ,port Ns Op ,...
.El
.Pp
Service names (from
.Pa /etc/services )
may be used instead of numeric port values.
A range may only be specified as the first value,
and the length of the port list is limited to
.Dv IP_FW_MAX_PORTS
(as defined in
.Pa /usr/src/sys/netinet/ip_fw.h )
ports.
A
.Ql \e
can be used to escape the
.Ql -
character in a service name:
.Pp
.Dl ipfw add count tcp from any ftp\e\e-data-ftp to any
.Pp
Fragmented packets which have a non-zero offset (i.e. not the first
fragment) will never match a rule which has one or more port
specifications. See the
.Ar frag
option for details on matching fragmented packets.
.Pp
Rules can apply to packets when they are incoming, or outgoing, or both.
The
.Ar in
keyword indicates the rule should only match incoming packets.
The
.Ar out
keyword indicates the rule should only match outgoing packets.
.Pp
To match packets going through a certain interface, specify
the interface using
.Ar via :
.Bl -hang -offset flag -width 1234567890123456
.It Ar via ifX
Packet must be going through interface
.Ar ifX.
.It Ar via if*
Packet must be going through interface
.Ar ifX ,
where X is any unit number.
.It Ar via any
Packet must be going through
.Em some
interface.
.It Ar via ipno
Packet must be going through the interface having IP address
.Ar ipno .
.El
.Pp
The
.Ar via
keyword causes the interface to always be checked.
If
.Ar recv
or
.Ar xmit
is used instead of
.Ar via ,
then the only receive or transmit interface (respectively) is checked.
By specifying both, it is possible to match packets based on both receive
and transmit interface, e.g.:
.Pp
.Dl "ipfw add 100 deny ip from any to any out recv ed0 xmit ed1"
.Pp
The
.Ar recv
interface can be tested on either incoming or outgoing packets, while the
.Ar xmit
interface can only be tested on outgoing packets. So
.Ar out
is required (and
.Ar in
invalid) whenever
.Ar xmit
is used. Specifying
.Ar via
together with
.Ar xmit
or
.Ar recv
is invalid.
.Pp
A packet may not have a receive or transmit interface: packets originating
from the local host have no receive interface. while packets destined for
the local host have no transmit interface.
.Pp
Additional
.Ar options :
.Bl -hang -offset flag -width 1234567890123456
.It frag
Match if the packet is a fragment and this is not the first fragment
of the datagram.
.Ar frag
may not be used in conjunction with either
.Ar tcpflags
or TCP/UDP port specifications.
.It in
Match if this packet was on the way in.
.It out
Match if this packet was on the way out.
.It ipoptions Ar spec
Match if the IP header contains the comma separated list of
options specified in
.Ar spec .
The supported IP options are:
.Ar ssrr
(strict source route),
.Ar lsrr
(loose source route),
.Ar rr
(record packet route), and
.Ar ts
(timestamp).
The absence of a particular option may be denoted
with a
.Dq ! .
.It established
Match packets that have the RST or ACK bits set.
TCP packets only.
.It setup
Match packets that have the SYN bit set but no ACK bit.
TCP packets only.
.It tcpflags Ar spec
Match if the TCP header contains the comma separated list of
flags specified in
.Ar spec .
The supported TCP flags are:
.Ar fin ,
.Ar syn ,
.Ar rst ,
.Ar psh ,
.Ar ack ,
and
.Ar urg .
The absence of a particular flag may be denoted
with a
.Dq ! .
A rule which contains a
.Ar tcpflags
specification can never match a fragmented packet which has
a non-zero offset. See the
.Ar frag
option for details on matching fragmented packets.
.It icmptypes Ar types
Match if the ICMP type is in the list
.Ar types .
The list may be specified as any combination of ranges
or individual types separated by commas.
.El
.Sh CHECKLIST
Here are some important points to consider when designing your
rules:
.Bl -bullet -hang -offset flag
.It
Remember that you filter both packets going in and out.
Most connections need packets going in both directions.
.It
Remember to test very carefully.
It is a good idea to be near the console when doing this.
.It
Don't forget the loopback interface.
.El
.Sh FINE POINTS
There is one kind of packet that the firewall will always discard,
that is an IP fragment with a fragment offset of one.
This is a valid packet, but it only has one use, to try to circumvent
firewalls.
.Pp
If you are logged in over a network, loading the KLD version of
.Nm
is probably not as straightforward as you would think.
I recommend this command line:
.Bd -literal -offset center
kldload /modules/ipfw.ko && \e
ipfw add 32000 allow all from any to any
.Ed
.Pp
Along the same lines, doing an
.Bd -literal -offset center
ipfw flush
.Ed
.Pp
in similar surroundings is also a bad idea.
.Pp
The IP filter list may not be modified if the system security level
is set to 3 or higher
.Po
see
.Xr init 8
for information on system security levels
.Pc .
.Sh PACKET DIVERSION
A divert socket bound to the specified port will receive all packets diverted
to that port; see
.Xr divert 4 .
If no socket is bound to the destination port, or if the kernel
wasn't compiled with divert socket support, diverted packets are dropped.
.Sh EXAMPLES
This command adds an entry which denies all tcp packets from
.Em cracker.evil.org
to the telnet port of
.Em wolf.tambov.su
from being forwarded by the host:
.Pp
.Dl ipfw add deny tcp from cracker.evil.org to wolf.tambov.su 23
.Pp
This one disallows any connection from the entire crackers network to
my host:
.Pp
.Dl ipfw add deny all from 123.45.67.0/24 to my.host.org
.Pp
Here is a good usage of the
.Ar list
command to see accounting records
and timestamp information:
.Pp
.Dl ipfw -at l
.Pp
or in short form without timestamps:
.Pp
.Dl ipfw -a l
.Pp
This rule diverts all incoming packets from 192.168.2.0/24 to divert port 5000:
.Pp
.Dl ipfw divert 5000 all from 192.168.2.0/24 to any in

.Pp
This program can put your computer in rather unusable state. When
using it for the first time, work on the console of the computer, and
do
.Em NOT
do anything you don't understand.
.Pp
When manipulating/adding chain entries, service and protocol names are
not accepted.
.Pp
Incoming packet fragments diverted by
.Ar divert
are reassembled before delivery to the socket, whereas fragments diverted via
.Ar tee
are not.
