I have some perl scripts running on one of my FBSD servers, basically the scripts get stats from several routers in my environment (Machine A). I installed 4.2-RELEASE on this server. I noticed that this box was causing high cpu usage on the routers when the perl scripts ran. After further investigation it turns out that a 4.3-Release (Machine B) server in a different office running the same perl scripts on the same hardware and routers is not experiencing the problem. I decided to change the (Machine A) kernel to 4.3-RELEASE. It seemed to fix the problem. However, this machine is running a firewall rules (Machine A). When I enabled the firewall the 4.3-RELEASE kernel would boot but not load the firewall rules. I needed to disable the firewall to get normal connectivity to the network. Any idea how I could get the rules to load properly. It seems that the ipfw command is not understood. Thanks for your help.
