PFILCTL(8)		     System Manager's Manual		      PFILCTL(8)

NAME
     pfilctl -- pfil(9) control utility

SYNOPSIS
     pfilctl heads
     pfilctl hooks
     pfilctl link <-i | -o> [-a] hook head
     pfilctl unlink <-i | -o> hook head

DESCRIPTION
     The  pfilctl  utility  is	intended to view and change configuration of the
     pfil(9) packet filtering hooks and filters on them.

COMMANDS
     heads   List available packet filtering points.

     hooks   List available packet filters.

     link <-i | -o> [-a] hook head
	     Link hook to head.  With the -i flag the hook will be connected  as
	     input  and with -o as output hook.  At least one of -i or -o is re-
	     quired.  By default pfilctl will prepend the hook in front of other
	     hooks if any present: new hook will be as close to the wire as pos-
	     sible, so that on input it will be the first filter and  on  output
	     it  will be the last.  Adding the -a flag switches to appending new
	     hook instead of prepending.

     unlink <-i | -o> hook head
	     Unlink hook on head.  At least one of -i or -o is	required.   With
	     the  -i  flag the hook will be removed from the input list of hooks
	     and with -o on output list.
