I'd really like to recommend looking into the pf-firewall in stead of ipfilt=
er. The two are pretty similar, but pf is probably both generally a better c=
hoice, and also has convenient logging via pflog. That would allow you to no=
t only inspect logged traffic, but also filter the log, so you can narrow do=
wn on blocked packets through or from a specific host for example.=20
