In Firewall Builder, firewall policy is a set -of rules, each rule consists of abstract objects which represent real network -objects and services (hosts, routers, firewalls, networks, protocols). -Firewall Builder helps user maintain database of objects and allows policy -editing using simple drag-and-drop operations. - -Preferences and objects databases are stored in XML format. -GUI and policy compilers are completely independent. Support for a new firewall -platform can be added to GUI without any changes done to the program, although -new policy compiler must be written. This provides for consistent abstract -model and the same GUI for different firewall platforms. Currently three most -popular free firewalls are supported: ipchains, iptables and ipfilter. -Because of this, Firewall Builder can be used to manage firewalls built on -variety of platforms including, but not limited to, Linux running ipchains or -iptables and FreeBSD or Solaris running ipfilter. - -WWW: http://www.fwbuilder.org/ |
