Description Toni Schmidbauer 2006-04-21 09:40:12 UTC 
	currently it is stated in the advanced networking section in
	the handbook to add IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT to allow arp through a
	filtering bridge. this is not false, but there's a better way
	to do it.

  Log:
  In the "filtering bridge" section, add a note about how to pass arp packets
  through the firewall.  This is useful in cases where a user may not wish to
  set IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT.

Different version of your patch committed.  Because of the 
pre/post text, I chose to document all three plausible options 
for this senerio and discuss their differences.  Thanks for 
the submission!
