Yes and no. ipmon (ipf's logging process) can log via syslog or directly
to a file.

If you want to log to a file:
# ipmon <path to log file> &

If you want to use syslog:
# ipmon -s &

and you have to add a line like this to syslog.conf:
local0.*                                        /var/log/ipf.log
