The official Generic Kernel from :
ftp://iso2.de.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/iso/3.0/i386cd-3.0.iso

How may I know if this option is set into the kernel I am
using?

Thanks,

Sylvain.

I know the supplied kernels include the configuration file
itself.
You should open your running kernel with "vi" and
search for
"START CONFIG FILE" string: after that there
should be info you need (ipfilter
is defined or not ? or is it commented with an
"#"?)

BTW, on netbsd-GENERIC from multicd1.iso the ipfilter is
compiled in.
