Also we have done some tests with the ixia traffic generator connected
via 10G network adapter. Tests have show that there is no visible
difference, and there is no visible performance degradation.

Is there any possibility to see IPFIREWALL_FORWARD option for ipfw.ko

Were there any patches about that?
I like freebsd-update, but lacking IPFIREWALL_FORWARD in GENERIC stops
me from using freebsd-update.
In a nutshell, no. This thread
it's needed for the functionality.
you need to slightly change the behaviour or the existing stack in quite a
number of places to handle a forwarded packet.
Sorry for catching up with the thread so late, I was without Internet
connection for the last couple of days.
Thanks for all the replies

A loadable module requires a coherent piece of code to implement the
functionality, that can be put into the module. This option
scatters tiny snippets of code throughout the exisitng
TCP/UDP/IP/ipfw code.
Is that just a matter of current implementation or is that 'scatter'
necessary for
' was a monolithic thing that could be loaded as a module,
then loading different builds of it may be feasible .. but it isn't :)
% grep -RHi IPFIREWALL_FORWARD /sys/
to scope the job of including it. I've no idea how costly wrapping that
code with sysctl tests rather than ifdefs might be - maybe worth
