Whoops, reply to all is good...

The contradiction is that for most of the other directives in man-page,
when it is possible to use tablearg it is listed, like

fwd | forward ipaddr | tablearg[,port]
or
nat nat_nr | tablearg
but not so for divert which just reads:
divert port

The pipe and queue directives as well are missing the | tablearg and
corresponding description.

Yes, your example is how I also imagine it to work.

I'm pondering how something like:

ipfw skipto tablearg all from any to any in { recv table(10) }
ipfw add $rulenr divert tablearg tcp from table(11) to any
ipfw add $rulenr fwd tablearg all from table(12) to any divert-output

would work out.

I'm not sure where the contradiction is.  Have you tried something like
the following as an example?  I'm not sure the below works, but in my
mind it does.  ;)

#
ipfw table 10 add 129.168.0.0/24 1234
ipfw table 10 add 10.5.21.0/24 5678
ipfw add 100 divert tablearg ip from table(10) to any
#

Perhaps knowing what it is you are trying to accomplish would lead
to a more concrete answer.

IPFW tablearg questions

2013-05-30 Thread Andreas Nilsson
Hello,

I started to test some more features of IPFW, namely skipto and fwd, both
in conjunction with tablearg.

The question:
Why can't you add a skipto to the default rule (65535)?

I also consider using tablearg with divert, but manpage is contradicting
itself in regards to divert with tablearg:
" divert port
 Divert packets that match this rule to the divert(4) socket
bound
 to port port.  The search terminates."
vs

"The tablearg argument can be used with the following
 actions: nat, pipe, queue, divert, tee, netgraph, ngtee, fwd, skipto,
 setfib, action parameters: tag, untag, rule options: limit, tagged."

Also, in the EXAMPLES section one can find:

" In the following example per-interface firewall is created:

   ipfw table 10 add vlan20 12000
   ipfw table 10 add vlan30 13000
   ipfw table 20 add vlan20 22000
   ipfw table 20 add vlan30 23000
   ..
   ipfw add 100 ipfw skipto tablearg ip from any to any recv
   'table(10)' in
   ipfw add 200 ipfw skipto tablearg ip from any to any xmit
   'table(10)' out
"
where ipfw add 100 ipfw skipto seems wrong...
