Vuurmuur - IPTables Frontend
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
DETAILS
<http://vuurmuur.sourceforge.net/> Vuurmuur is a middle-end/front-end for
netfilter/iptables aimed at system-administrators who need a decent
firewall, but don't have netfilter specific knowledge. It is distributed
under the terms of the GNU GPL.
The program is basically split into three pieces. One piece (the
middle-end) converts humanly-readable rules, hosts, groups, networks,
zones, interfaces and services into a iptables ruleset (or optional into a
bash-script). The second part is a little daemon that converts the
netfiler logs to easy readable logs, that reflect all the predefined
objects described above.
The third part is a Ncurses-based Gui (the front-end) in which one can
manage the firewall. Most important here is the real-time feedback. Logs
can be viewed in real-time, using colors for easy interpretation. Also,
the current connections can be viewed in real-time. Filtering
possibilities make it easy to monitor specific hosts or services.
