01000 allow ip from any to any via lo0
It's not useless, although I'll agree that it could be clearer.
Ceri
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->ceri "ipfw l" does work, but it's probably not as clear as "ipfw list", so I'll take care of changing this. Responsible Changed From-To: ceri->freebsd-doc Throw this back to the doc team. State Changed From-To: open->closed Changed, thanks. |
The handbook description of ipfw is wrong and useless for how to ask ipfw to list the rules. The handbook says: 8.4.4.2. Listing the IPFW rules The syntax for this form of the command is: ipfw [-a] [-t] [-N] l Fix: The proper line is ipfw [-a] [-t] [-N] list add the word 'list' to your command line.
