You need to recompile your kernel with the following options:

options         IPFIREWALL
options         IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
options         IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=3D1000

(Change the value for IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT to suit your own needs).

You also need to read the ipfw man page, and the bit of the handbook
about ipfw at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls-ipfw.ht=
