https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229363 Bug ID: 229363 Summary: Incomplete documentation for FreeBSD ipfw Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Documentation Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: shriyogeshchandra@gmail.com When I see the official documentation of ipfw[1] or the man pages[2] it seems that it is sometimes incomplete. Specifically, there are a lot of options like, firewall_myservices firewall_allowservices etc., which can be found in many online guides[3] but **not** in the docs. They're even discussed in the lists[4]. So I would like to understand if these are unofficial or undocumented options, and if they might be arbitrarily removed at some point in the future since they're not formally documented. More importantly, is there a single comprehensive documentation source for ipfw, short of grokking the source code?
