There are two ways. The first is to do a "ls" command in
/boot/kernel to see the modules related to ipfw:
/boot/kernel/ipfw.ko
/boot/kernel/ipfw_nat.ko
According to the rule (see "man loader.conf" for details)
of how modules are enabled, the corresponding statements
for /boot/loader.conf would be:
ipfw_load="YES"
ipfw_nat_load="YES"
Note that the ipfw_nat module is only needed if you're
going to use NAT functionality.
The second way is to check /boot/defaults/loader.conf
for related statements. It contains this line:
ipfw_load="NO" # Firewall
Is this what you've been searching for, or did I
misunderstand your question?
