Packet Filter pseudo-device

Name:

/dev/pf

Description:

Packet filtering takes place in io-sock. A pseudo-device, /dev/pf, lets user processes control the behavior of the packet filter through an ioctl() interface.

For more information, see Packet Filtering in the High-Performance Networking Stack User's Guide, and the FreeBSD documentation (https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+13.3-RELEASE+and+Ports).
