https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=276856 --- Comment #3 from mgrooms@shrew.net --- I appreciate the pf work on FreeBSD. I've deployed it extensively and use it daily. There is nothing wrong with the new default behavior from my perspective. It's just going to bite a lot of people who upgrade to 14 and rely on packet encapsulation due to crypto ( or other use cases ). That adds overhead which will causes fragmentation. The case was handled by default but now it must be explicitly enabled. And, since it was the default, I would guess that some users didn't know the option existed or what it was doing for them. Having outdated docs doesn't help. I wasn't aware of the newer pf syntax being implemented. Will have a look once the documentation is updated to match. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
