Greetings,

I have been searching around and am still unsure as to which
one (ipfw or ipf) is the better solution to implement on a firewall.

I have used ipfw before and understand it (mostly).
ipf was ported to FreeBSD recently and is it better than ipfw ?

Which (based upon your experiences) is the better solution

Thanks
Vikash
