Assuming you're doing this to provide security-related information,
consider Andrzej Bialecki's spy(4) interface, available from:

	http://www.freebsd.org/~abial/spy-0.1.tgz

I think you'll find that it does a much more comprehensive job of what
you're trying to do.

You can pick up a copy of the manpage at:

Ciao,
Sheldon.
