How to enable ipfw in freebsd without recompiling the kernel?

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

IF you don’t want to recompile kernel, just because you want to enable ipfw, you can use the following command to do so:

kldload ipfw && ipfw add 65534 allow all from any to any

Never issue the above command without ipfw add 65534 allow all from any to any else you might end up with a locked box.
