PF, by means of the /etc/pf.conf file, indicates which packets should be logged. pflogd handles those logging requests.

Normally, the pflog file used is /var/log/pflog. It's in tcpdump readable format. It is synced every minute with the pflog0 interface.

To view the pflog file:

tcpdump -n -e -ttt -r /var/log/pflog

To view packets being logged in realtime:

tcpdump -n -e -ttt pflog0
