    Nope, it's 22.

    Have you already read
    http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls-ipfw.html?

    It describes how to enable ipfw in rc.conf, and how to specify a
    firewall script that loads the rules during the boot process.

    Suppose, your fw script is /etc/ipfw.rules. Then the following should
    (no warranty, of course ;-) load your rules without a reboot:

    # kldload ipfw.ko && sh /etc/ipfw.rules
