>Description:
The Handbook's page on firewalls <http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/firewalls.html> does not mention the firewall_type's feature mentioned in "man rc.conf".  Since this feature makes setting up firewalls really easy, it really should be documented in the Handbook.  Of course, I may be misunderstanding something.
>How-To-Repeat:
Read <http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/firewalls.html>.
>Fix:
I'd be happy to write the documentation if some committer feels that it would be appropriate.
