 Hi,
 
 Looking at the man page, the 'log' option is definitely documented:
 
      ipfw [-q] add [number] [prob match_probability] action [log
      [logamount number]] proto from src to dst [via name | ipno]
      [options]
 
 and:
 
      If the kernel was compiled with IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE, then when
      a packet matches a rule with the log keyword a message will
      be printed on the console.  If the kernel was compiled with the
      IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT op- tion, then by default logging will
      cease after the number of packets specified by the option are
      received for that particular chain entry.
 
 Should I close this PR?
 
 Neil
