You can now write 1.2.3.0/24{56-80} or 1.2.3.0{56-80}
Also make the parser more strict.
* Support a new format for the list of addresses:
1.2.3.4,5.6.7.8/30,9.10.11.12/22,12.12.12.13, ...
which exploits the new capabilities of O_IP_SRC_MASK/O_IP_DST_MASK
* Allow spaces after commas to make lists of addresses more readable.
1.2.3.4, 5.6.7.8/30, 9.10.11.12/22, 12.12.12.13, ...
* ipfw will now accept full commands as a single argument and strip
extra leading/trailing whitespace as below:
ipfw "-q add allow ip from 1.2.3.4 to 5.6.7.8, 9.10.11.23 "
This should help in moving the body of ipfw into a library
that user programs can invoke.
* Cleanup some comments and data structures.
* Do not print rule counters for dynamic rules with ipfw -d list
(PR 51182)
* Improve 'ipfw -h' output (PR 46785)
* Add a '-n' flag to test the syntax of commands without actually
calling [gs]etsockopt() (PR 44238)
* Support the '-n' flag also with the preprocessors;

Previously you needed to specify every address in the range, which
was unconvenient and lead to very long lines.
Internally the set is still stored in the same way, just the
input and output routines are modified.
Manpage update still missing.
Perhaps a similar preprocessing step would be useful for port ranges.

"ipid" options. This feature has been requested by several users.
On passing, fix some minor bugs in the parser. This change is fully
backward compatible so if you have an old /sbin/ipfw and a new
kernel you are not in trouble (but you need to update /sbin/ipfw
if you want to use the new features).
Document the changes in the manpage.
Now you can write things like
ipfw add skipto 1000 iplen 0-500
which some people were asking to give preferential treatment to
short packets.
The 'MFC after' is just set as a reminder, because I still need
to merge the Alpha/Sparc64 fixes for ipfw2 (which unfortunately
change the size of certain kernel structures; not that it matters
a lot since ipfw2 is entirely optional and not the default...)

default-to-deny firewall. Simply turning off IPFW via a preexisting
sysctl does the job. To make it more apparent (since nobody picked up
on this in a week's worth of flames), the boolean sysctl's have been
integrated into the /sbin/ipfw command set in an obvious and straightforward
manner. For example, you can now do 'ipfw disable firewall' or
'ipfw enable firewall'. This is far easier to remember then the
net.inet.ip.fw.enable sysctl.

following Julian's good suggestion: since you can specify any match
pattern as an option, rules now have the following format:
[<proto> from <src> to <dst>] [options]
i.e. the first part is now entirely optional (and left there just
for compatibility with ipfw1 rulesets).
Add a "-c" flag to show/list rules in the compact form
(i.e. without the "ip from any to any" part) when possible.
The default is to include it so that scripts processing ipfw's
canonical output will still work.
Note that as part of this cleanup (and to remove ambiguity), MAC
fields now can only be specified in the options part.
Update the manpage to reflect the syntax.
Clarify the behaviour when a match is attempted on fields which
are not present in the packet, e.g. port numbers on non TCP/UDP
packets, and the "not" operator is specified. E.g.
ipfw add allow not src-port 80
will match also ICMP packets because they do not have port numbers, so
"src-port 80" will fail and "not src-port 80" will succeed. For such
cases it is advised to insert further options to prevent undesired results
(e.g. in the case above, "ipfw add allow proto tcp not src-port 80").
We definitely need to rewrite the parser using lex and yacc!
render the syntax less ambiguous.
Now rules can be in one of these two forms
<action> <protocol> from <src> to <dst> [options]
<action> MAC dst-mac src-mac mac-type [options]
however you can now specify MAC and IP header fields as options e.g.
ipfw add allow all from any to any mac-type arp
ipfw add allow all from any to any { dst-ip me or src-ip me }
which makes complex expressions a lot easier to write and parse.
The "all from any to any" part is there just for backward compatibility.
Manpage updated accordingly.
Implement the M_SKIP_FIREWALL bit in m_flags to avoid loops
for firewall-generated packets (the constant has to go in sys/mbuf.h).
Better comments on keepalive generation, and enforce dyn_rst_lifetime
and dyn_fin_lifetime to be less than dyn_keepalive_period.
Enforce limits (up to 64k) on the number of dynamic buckets, and
retry allocation with smaller sizes.
Raise default number of dynamic rules to 4096.
Improved handling of set of rules -- now you can atomically
enable/disable multiple sets, move rules from one set to another,
and swap sets.

with ipfw2 extensions and give examples of use of the new features.
This is just a preliminary commit, where i simply added the basic
syntax for the extensions, and clean up the page (e.g. by listing
things in alphabetical rather than random order).
I would appreciate feedback and possible corrections/extensions
by interested parties.
Still missing are a more detailed description of stateful rules
(with keepalives), interaction with of stateful rules and natd (don't do
that!), examples of use with the recently introduced rule sets.
There is an issue related to the MFC: RELENG_4 still has ipfw as a
default, and ipfw2 is optional. We have two options here: MFC this
page as ipfw(8) adding a large number of "SORRY NOT IN IPFW" notes,
or create a new ipfw2(8) manpage just for -stable users. I am all
for the first approach, but of course am listening to your comments.
The bugfix (ipfw2.c) makes the handling of port numbers with
a dash in the name, e.g. ftp-data, consistent with old ipfw:
use \\ before the - to consider it as part of the name and not
a range separator.
The new feature (all this description will go in the manpage):
each rule now belongs to one of 32 different sets, which can
be optionally specified in the following form:
ipfw add 100 set 23 allow ip from any to any
If "set N" is not specified, the rule belongs to set 0.
Individual sets can be disabled, enabled, and deleted with the commands:
ipfw disable set N
ipfw enable set N
ipfw delete set N
Enabling/disabling of a set is atomic. Rules belonging to a disabled
set are skipped during packet matching, and they are not listed
unless you use the '-S' flag in the show/list commands.
Note that dynamic rules, once created, are always active until
they expire or their parent rule is deleted.
Set 31 is reserved for the default rule and cannot be disabled.
All sets are enabled by default. The enable/disable status of the sets
can be shown with the command
ipfw show sets
Hopefully, this feature will make life easier to those who want to
have atomic ruleset addition/deletion/tests. Examples:
To add a set of rules atomically:
ipfw disable set 18
ipfw add ... set 18 ... # repeat as needed
ipfw enable set 18
To delete a set of rules atomically
ipfw disable set 18
ipfw delete set 18
ipfw enable set 18
To test a ruleset and disable it and regain control if something
goes wrong:
ipfw disable set 18
ipfw add ... set 18 ... # repeat as needed
ipfw enable set 18 ; echo "done "; sleep 30 && ipfw disable set 18
here if everything goes well, you press control-C before
the "sleep" terminates, and your ruleset will be left
active. Otherwise, e.g. if you cannot access your box,
the ruleset will be disabled after the sleep terminates.
I think there is only one more thing that one might want, namely
a command to assign all rules in set X to set Y, so one can
test a ruleset using the above mechanisms, and once it is
considered acceptable, make it part of an existing ruleset.
+ the header file contains two different opcodes (O_IPOPTS and O_IPOPT)
for what is the same thing, and sure enough i used one in the kernel
and the other one in userland. Be consistent!
+ "keep-state" and "limit" must be the last match pattern in a rule,
so no matter how you enter them move them to the end of the rule.
* accept "icmptype" as an alias for "icmptypes";
* remove an extra whitespace after "log" rules;
* print correctly the "limit" masks;
* correct a typo in parsing dummynet arguments (this caused a coredump);
* do not allow specifying both "check-state" and "limit", they are
(and have always been) mutually exclusive;
* remove an extra print of the rule before installing it;
* make stdout buffered -- otherwise, if you log its output with syslog,
you will see one entry for each printf(). Rather unpleasant.
fatal on alphas.
Fixed setting of WARNS. WARNS should never be set unconditionally, since
this breaks testing of different WARNS values by setting it at a higher
level (e.g., on the command line).
now it should support all the instructions of the old ipfw.
Fix some bugs in the user interface, /sbin/ipfw.
Please check this code against your rulesets, so i can fix the
remaining bugs (if any, i think they will be mostly in /sbin/ipfw).
Once we have done a bit of testing, this code is ready to be MFC'ed,
together with a bunch of other changes (glue to ipfw, and also the
removal of some global variables) which have been in -current for
a couple of weeks now.
