Build

This builds on all RHEL7 / CentOS 7 releases. Make sure the linux kernel-headers package is installed.

 $ make all

The build will produce:

  • ipfw_mod.ko: the kernel module
  • ipfw: the userland program

Operation

Load the kernel module

# insmod ./kipfw-mod/ipfw_mod.ko

Add some ipfw rules

# ipfw -q flush
# ipfw -q pipe flush
# ipfw add pipe 3 in dst-port 80,443,8080
# ipfw pipe 3 config delay 80ms bw 40Mbit/s plr 0.01 queue 1000Kbytes

Unload the kernel module

# rmmod ipfw_mod.ko

Authors

This directory contains a port of ipfw and dummynet to Linux and Windows. This version of ipfw and dummynet is called "ipfw3" as it is the third major rewrite of the code. The source code here comes straight from FreeBSD (roughly the version in HEAD as of February 2010), plus some glue code and headers written from scratch. Unless specified otherwise, all the code here is under a BSD license.
