Welcome to  Firewall.

Introduction
IPFW or ipfirewall is an internet-protocol-firewall written for FreeBSD. But on GhostBSD ipfw is managed by OpenRC.
 Attention: Please do not use FreeBSD firewall guidance.

IPFW on GhostBSD
IPFW is already setup to default: Set ipfw to default accept
If you run rc-update it shows all running services, ipfw included.
OpenRC manages how ipfw (/etc/init.d/ipfw) configuration is initialized.
The old way defined by TrueOS allows you to define the firewall rules via a /etc/ipfw.conf file. You have to create that file as it does not exist by default.
However, OpenRC (main branch) defines the firewall rules within the /etc/ipfw.conf file itself.
