I'd also like to use the machine as a network monitor. I downloaded a package (trafshow-2.0) which requires the berkely packet filter to be enabled. In the FreeBSD handbook, there's a paragraph that talks about the bpfilter and how it can be a security risk to your network. What are the security risks of running bpfilter, and how should I set it up?
