Well FWbuilder is NOT easy.  The documentation does not match the
current GUI.  Now the box is locked up.  I will have to pull it again,
hook it up to a kybd/VGA and reset iptables....

Maybe Shoreline with webmin....

Problem is I want a REAL router/firewall with little work.  Both public
and private nets have routable addresses.  No NATing for me!  I just
help write the RFC ;)  And all the templates for fwbuilder want you to
be using NATing.

Perhaps I should just set up another Astaro firewall.  I have been using
Astaro since v3, so I am comfortable with it....


If you've ever used a Checkpoint firewall, FWBuilder is exactly like
that interface.  It even comes with a module that will let you modify
Checkpoint firewalls.
I noticed the later, also a PIX module. No I have not personally needed that costly of a firewall.

Full discloser time. My day job is with ICSAlabs. My area is security protocols research (like setttin up the initial IPsec certification criteria), but when I visit the labs there are all those firewall products up and running.... So, yeah, I know checkpoint. I talk with the gang over in the labs about 'simple' firewalls, but there are only certain things the boss funds here. So then I have to go cheap.
