hi

it's nothing dramatically but i think there is a little mistake in the freebsd 4.6.2 handbook. at bottom of page 226 and on top of
page 227 (10.7.7 IPFW Overhead and Optimization) where the times packet processing times are written, the times are specified once
as milliseconds (ms) another time as microseconds.

>>The per-packet processing overhead in the former case was approximately 2.703ms/packet, or roughly 2.7
microseconds per rule<<

i don't know much about international regulations, but in switzerland (where i live) the "ms" stands for "milliseconds" while we use
"usec" for microseconds (or the greek letter mu (or whatever it's name in english is))...


thanks
bruno ritz
