You get IP number from dhcp. Your traffic is blocked in the router until
you have successfully logged in. Preferably via a web page where to you
are automatically redirected until you've logged in.

I thought this was "well known". :) There exist a couple of "nice"
solutions, but none based on netbsd. :(

What's needed is a smooth way of adding/removing ip adresses from the
accept/deny ipf rules. (Rewriting /etc/ipf.conf for every change isn't
what I call a "smooth" way)
