If you have more then one edge then stateful filtering will not work since sessions may exit router 1 but enter on router 2 or 3 (and you will not get happy with using pfsync in such a case). So yes, I can see that you can't use pf(4) full pfstates on the edge. I guess sloppy states may be an option... -- :wq Claudio
