34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35.Cd "device pflog"
36.Sh DESCRIPTION
37The
38.Nm pflog
39interface is a pseudo-device which makes visible all packets logged by
40the packet filter,
41.Xr pf 4 .
42Logged packets can easily be monitored in real
43time by invoking
44.Xr tcpdump 1
45on the
46.Nm
47interface, or stored to disk using
48.Xr pflogd 8 .

42Logged packets can easily be monitored in real

45on the
46.Nm
47interface, or stored to disk using
48.Xr pflogd 8 .
49.Pp
50The pflog0 interface is created automatically at boot if both
51.Xr pf 4
52and
53.Xr pflogd 8
54are enabled;
55further instances can be created using
56.Xr ifconfig 8 .
57.Pp
50Each packet retrieved on this interface has a header associated
51with it of length
52.Dv PFLOG_HDRLEN .
53This header documents the address family, interface name, rule
54number, reason, action, and direction of the packet that was logged.
55This structure, defined in
56.Aq Pa net/if_pflog.h
57looks like
58.Bd -literal -offset indent
