The project developers
don't advocate the use of GUI tools for two reasons:
- GUI tools are yet another layer. Development on pf(4) has been progressed so quickly that no GUI tool has kept up.
- To effectively use pf(4) requires understanding. Understanding comes from studying the pf(4) manpage & PF Users' Guide.
The only third-party document which comes close to serving as a
pf(4) introduction is Hansteen's manuscript:
