NAME
       /etc/firewall/groups - base directory for rcf(8) groups.

DESCRIPTION
       By  default,  rcf(8)  group  text files are kept under the
       /etc/firewall/groups directory. The --groups command  line
       parameter  can  be used to specify an alternate directory.
       Group files can be used in any [accept|deny|ignore] option
       in place of a hostname and/or IP address.

       Example:

              accept-eth1-telnet-clients   =   1.2.3.4  ./trusted
              host1 host2

       The group file in this example  is  trusted.  The  leading
       dot-slash  ./  specifies  that this file is located in the
       default groups directory. We could also have used  a  full
       path (for example /etc/fwtrusted.hosts) instead.

       The   group   files  contains  a  list  of  hostnames,  IP
       addresses, networks, and/or  other  groups.  They  can  be
       entered  on a single line or multiple lines. The pound (#)
       character is used to lead comments. Command can be entered
       on the same line as hostnames, etc.

       Example:

              /etc/firewall/groups/trusted

              #
              # Sample contents for trusted group.
              #
              5.6.7.8/32      # IP address 5.6.7.8.
              9.10.11.0/24    # The 9.10.11.* network.
              host.domain.com # A fully qualified domain name.
