A *QUICK* pass through this man page to make it conform to mdoc
standards and to clean up some of the English. The job is nowhere complete. This man page would be a good project for someone who knows something about the firewall software, and would like to contribute to the documentation effort. Many of the things in this man page are out of date and do not reflect reality.

Ipaccounting (later ipacct) is a system facility,which allows counting

Basic idea is that every packet checked against number of entries

Blocking - this chain defines whenever packet should be accepted

Forwarding - this chain defines whenever packet should be accepted

for forwarding only.

Accounting - this chain defines types of packets , which should be

counted.

To check whenever or not packet denied by some chain , checking

options to setsockopt() can be issued. Then the argument is

Ipaccounting entries added the same way as ipfw ones.Packet checked

If IP_FW_F_BIDIR flag is set in accounting entry,packets counted are
