Actually, it depends on the *BSD. OpenBSD ships ipfilter, but FreeBSD ships
a different solution, ipfw (though it has an ipfilter port that you can
use instead). As always, the "nice" thing about *BSD is how different they
are from each other in spite of their claims of Linux being more fragmented
;-).
Other possibilities include TIS Firewalling Toolkit
(http://www.tis.com/research/software/>) , Juniper
(http://www.obtuse.com/juniper/>), and portsentry (not quite a firewall,
but people seem interested in the active defense side of things too), just
to name a few.
