            Bug ID: 287281
           Summary: ipfw man page never defines table-name
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Manual Pages
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: cweimann@gmail.com
                CC: doc@FreeBSD.org

In the LOOKUP TABLES section it says "Table name needs to match the following
spec: table-name." But the table-name spec is not defined anywhere.  

Looking at the function ipfw_check_object_name in ipfw2.c...


    /*
     * Check that name is null-terminated and contains
     * valid symbols only. Valid mask is:
     * [a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.]{1,63}
     */

Also the name 'all' is reserved.
