I hear that CAP needs at least 16 bpf's. Most of current kernels have only
12 bpf's in it. So you have to recompile a kernel with 16 bpfilters.

pseudo-device   bpfilter        16

After a new kernel starts to run, you can make devices /dev/bpf0 to 
/dev/bpf15.

CAP patch level 195 supports Net/FreeBSD and can be compiled 
straigbtforwardly.
