A while ago I happened to have a situation where ipfw used up all of its
space for dynamic rules. So, I added the following to /etc/sysctl.conf
net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_buckets=512
net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_max=2000
Looking at sysctl -a | grep ip.fw I see that dyn_buckets has been set to
512 and dyn_max has been set to 2000. However curr_dyn_bucets is at 256 and
its never seems to go over that. I've never seen a bucket number beyond 255
in an ipfw show listing.
Have tried doing this by hand, flushing ipfw's rules first with the same
result.
Is there something amiss with the dyn_buckets knob?
