+.Sh NAME
+.Nm mac_ifoff
+.Nd "interface silencing policy"
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile the interface silencing policy into your kernel,
+place the following lines in your kernel
+configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "options MAC"
+.Cd "options MAC_IFOFF"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Alternately, to load the interface silencing policy module at boot time,
+place the following line in your kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "options MAC"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+and in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+mac_ifoff_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+interface silencing module allows administrators to enable and disable
+incoming and outgoing data flow on system network interfaces
+via the
+.Xr sysctl 8
+interface.
+.Pp
+To disable network traffic over the loopback
+.Pq Xr lo 4
+interface, set the
+.Xr sysctl 8
+OID
+.Va security.mac.ifoff.lo_enabled
+to 0 (default 1).
+.Pp
+To enable network traffic over other interfaces,
+set the
+.Xr sysctl 8
+OID
+.Va security.mac.ifoff.other_enabled
+to 1 (default 0).
+.Pp
+To allow BPF traffic to be received,
+even while other traffic is disabled,
+set the
+.Xr sysctl 8
+OID
+.Va security.mac.ifoff.bpfrecv_enabled
+to 1 (default 0).
+.Ss Label Format
+No labels are defined.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+policy module first appeared in
+.Fx 5.0
+and was developed by the
+.Tn TrustedBSD
+Project.
+.Sh AUTHORS
+This software was contributed to the
+.Fx
+Project by Network Associates Labs,
+the Security Research Division of Network Associates
+Inc.
+under DARPA/SPAWAR contract N66001-01-C-8035
+.Pq Dq CBOSS ,
+as part of the DARPA CHATS research program.
+.Sh BUGS
+See
+.Xr mac 9
+concerning appropriateness for production use.
+The
+.Tn TrustedBSD
+MAC Framework is considered experimental in
+.Fx .
+.Pp
+While the MAC Framework design is intended to support the containment of
+the root user, not all attack channels are currently protected by entry
+point checks.
+As such, MAC Framework policies should not be relied on, in isolation,
+to protect against a malicious privileged user.
