by the way how will you check specific packets dropped by PF? do a tcpdump on pflog?
Absolutely. # tcpdump -neti pflog0 or # tcpdump -netr /var/log/pflog are typical. You are only logging your blocked packets, so you will not see passed packets establish state tables. I log both, so I can use action block or action pass as desired. The rule numbers in the output will match the numbers from # pfctl -vs rules output.
