This is my working IPv6 and IPv4 dual stack script from FreeBSD 7.1 server. It should work with any latest PF version under OpenBSD / FreeBSD / NetBSD without a problem.
You need to add following lines to /etc/rc.conf under FreeBSD to turn on PF firewall:
pf_enable="YES" pflog_enable="YES" pflog_logfile="/var/log/pflog" pf_rules="/etc/pf.conf"
Next create /etc/pf.conf file as follows. Replace variable with appropriate values.
- By default firewall drops all incoming and outgoing connections for both IPv4 and IPv6.
- By default IPv4 and IPv6 outgoing allowed for ssh, smtp, domain / dns, www, https, ntp, ping and whois requests.
- By default IPv4 and IPv6 incoming allowed for ssh, smtp, domain / dns, www, https, and ping only.

You also need to create /etc/pf.block.ip.conf file with list of IPs and subnet to block manually as follows:
202.54.1.2 191.10.1.0/29

Hi there! I would like to know if this configuration can help me block IPv6 domain like https facebook? I have a problem blocking Https facebook.
Yes, it passes all ICMP6 traffic. Feel free to modify pf.conf it as per your requirements and setup.
Hi, I think i got a small security problem.
At the end of the script you have a few lines controlling what of icmp6 can get in. But at the start of the script you have
#IPv6 – pass in/out all IPv6 ICMP traffic
pass in quick proto icmp6 all
which lets all icmp6 traffic in. Or did I get something wrong?
Thanks for the heads up.
There should be a correction on the line below, of where to put pf_enable=”YES”
You need to add following lines to /etc/pf.conf under FreeBSD to turn on PF firewall:
It should be rc.conf?
