the packet's source address. Essentially automates an anti-spoofing
check using the information in the routing table.
Experimental. The usage and rule format for the feature may still be
subject to change.
drain routines are done by swi_net, which allows for better queue control
at some future point. Packets may also be directly dispatched to a netisr
instead of queued, this may be of interest at some installations, but
currently defaults to off.

Security improvements:
- Increase the size of each syncookie secret from 32 to 128 bits
in order to make brute force attacks on the secrets much more
difficult.
- Always return the lowest order dword from the MD5 hash; this
allows us to expose 2 more bits of the cookie and makes ACK
floods which seek to guess the cookie value more difficult.
Performance improvements:
- Increase the lifetime of each syncookie from 4 seconds to 16
seconds. This increases the usefulness of syncookies during
an attack.
- From Yahoo!: Reduce the number of calls to MD5Update; this
results in a ~17% increase in cookie generation time here.

packets coming out of a GIF tunnel are re-processed by ipfw, et. al.
By default they are not reprocessed. With the option they are.
This reverts 1.214. Prior to that change packets were not re-processed.
After they were which caused problems because packets do not have
distinguishing characteristics (like a special network if) that allows
them to be filtered specially.
This is really a stopgap measure designed for immediate MFC so that
4.8 has consistent handling to what was in 4.7.

OSes has probably caused more problems than it ever solved. Allow the
user to retire the old behavior by specifying their own privileged
range with,
net.inet.ip.portrange.reservedhigh default = IPPORT_RESERVED - 1
net.inet.ip.portrange.reservedlo default = 0
Now you can run that webserver without ever needing root at all. Or
just imagine, an ftpd that can really drop privileges, rather than
just set the euid, and still do PORT data transfers from 20/tcp.
Two edge cases to note,
# sysctl net.inet.ip.portrange.reservedhigh=0
Opens all ports to everyone, and,
# sysctl net.inet.ip.portrange.reservedhigh=65535
Locks all network activity to root only (which could actually have
been achieved before with ipfw(8), but is somewhat more
complicated).
For those who stick to the old religion that 0-1023 belong to root and
root alone, don't touch the knobs (or even lock them by raising
securelevel(8)), and nothing changes.
