NPF(7) FreeBSD Miscellaneous Information Manual NPF(7) NAME NPF - NetBSD packet filter DESCRIPTION NPF is a layer 3 packet filter, supporting IPv4 and IPv6 as well as layer 4 protocols such as TCP, UDP, and ICMP. It was designed with a focus on high performance, scalability, and modularity. FEATURES NPF offers the traditional set of features provided by packet filters. Some key features are: o Stateful inspection (connection tracking). o Network address translation (NAT). This includes static (stateless) and dynamic (stateful) translation, port translation, bi-directional NAT, etc. o IPv6-to-IPv6 network prefix translation (NPTv6). o Tables for efficient IP sets. o Application Level Gateways (e.g., to support traceroute). o Use of BPF with just-in-time (JIT) compilation. o Rule procedures and a framework for NPF extensions. o Traffic normalisation (extension). o Packet logging (extension). For a full set of features and their description, see the NPF documentation website and other manual pages.
