>Description:
There is a misfitting in two parts of man 8 ipfw about
quantity of ports that may be specified in a rule.
In the Section RULE BODY in the description of 'ports'
pattern it is said:
"The length of the port list is limited to 30 ports or ranges, ..."
while later in the Section IPFW2 ENHANCEMENTS, subsection "Port
specifications" it is mentioned a different length of the port
list:
"ipfw1 ... is limited to 10 entries instead of the 15 allowed
by ipfw2."
>How-To-Repeat:
man ipfw | grep "is limited to"
>Fix:
Probably "15" should be changed to "30" in the second cite.
