Hi!

I thought about starting to use fast IP forwarding, but...

It seems that such "fast forwardable" packets, when passed from
ether_input(), for example, just simply bypass all firewall checks.

Am I right?


P.S.

It would be fine to announce such changes via freebsd-announce
and document all sysctl variables.


Thanks,
