>Description:

The Handbook's section on enabling ipfw (10.8.3) doesn't mention it's
kldload'ness, just that a kernel recompile is necessary.  Since rc.conf
will load ipfw.ko on demand, this deserves a mention (along with necessary 
anti-foot shooting incantations to avoid looking yourself out of the box).
