Request for documenting IPSec, NAT/divert, ipfw, ipfilter ... in kernel flow ?
Hi, sorry for cross-mailing. Reply-to: set to freebsd-net. I have seen some discussion on freebsd-security etc. about some parts of the subject. I have seen older messages in archives. Regularly the same questions seem to come up. I have not found an all-including description of the answer to s.th. like: "Can anybody tell me the order packets get processed in kernel related to IPSec, NAT/divert, ipfw, ipfilter, ... for incoming, outgoing, forwarding... ?". What about bpf, ... ? Is there any chance that some of the gurus can draw one or more ascii arts or xfig or whatever images that show the in kernel packet flow/processing ? Perhaps the doc project would also be happy to include it in the handbook or somewhere else. Would make life much more easier for many people. TIA -- Greetings Bjoern A.
