This is the Berkeley packet filter.  You'll need to do the following:
1) add this line to your kernel config file
	pseudo-device	bpfilter	4
2) config MYKERNEL (whatever your kernel config file name is)
3) cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL
4) make depend
5) make
6) make install
7) shutdown -r now

Yes it's true, you'll have to build a new kernel with support for the bpfilter :)
You'll also have to do an MAKEDEV in /dev building bpf[0-3]
