>Description:
Section 30.5.8 of the Handbook states:
 
If the packet is a TCP packet, there will be an additional field starting with a hyphen followed by letters corresponding to any flags that were set. See the ipmon(8) manual page for a list of letters and their flags.
 
However, ipmon(8) directs the user to ipf.conf(5), so let's reference 
that directly instead.
