pseudo-device bpfilter 1 #Berkeley packet filter is enabled by default in my GENERIC kernel configurations, atleast in 3.5-s they are. pseudo-device bpf #Berkeley packet filter unser 4.x, it appears to be enabled by default in the GENERIC kernel configuration also. Whether the system by default uses these is a different story. FreeBSD - The BEST upgrade you can do to NT!
