Thanks for more answers :)
I has finished this. But i have one question, how to I should act with a 
dummynet code?
Through a pseudo device /dev/ipfwctl we can control an ipfw state.
The access to ipfwctl device can be configured via devfs.conf.
User must have a write permissions to /dev/ipfwctl for change ipfw state 
and a read permissions for read ipfw state.
Patch can be found here: http://butcher.heavennet.ru/ipfw_ioctl/
