net/bone-utils 2026.05.16

This is the [B]ag [O]f [N]etgraph [E]xtensions utilities package is an evolving set of extra netgraph(4) utilities to simplify using the kernel modules in net/bone-kmods. Additionally it provides a very simple rc(8) script which re-names interfaces to match whatever you named them in your ngctl.conf.

At present this module provides the following: * netgraph rc(8) script that keeps ifconfig(8)/ngctl(8) in agreement on nodes that present a network interface (ng_eiface(4), ng_ether(4), ng_iface(4)). * jeiface script to create an ng_eiface(4) in a jail giving it the name and optional MAC you request. * ncpcap(8) connectes to nodes to capture traffic. It is meant to have its output piped to tcpdump(1) * ngportal(8) is the fast and simple way to connect to vnets using netgraph.

See manpages for more details and example usage. This package needs the correct version of net/bone-kmods for your system. Most users want the default flavor:

pkg install bone-kmods

If you built your kernel with INVARIANTS (the default in CURRENT), use the @invariants flavor:

pkg install bone-kmods-invariants
