Read /etc/rc.firewall. In /etc/rc.firewall, edit the interface
definitions for your firewall type. In /etc/rc.conf, add the lines
firewall_enable="YES"  # "NO" will turn off the firewall
firewall_type="client" # protect this machine only 
# ("simple" would protect a simple network, "open" would protect
nothing)
