Take a look at Smoothwall for a standalone appliance-like device:
http://www.smoothwall.org/

Better yet, give FWBuilder a shot:
http://www.fwbuilder.org

Fwbuilder is really quite impressive, you can manage multiple platforms
from a single console. The tool is much similar to one offered by that
"other" vendor and significantly cheaper (it's GPL'ed). It does a basic
sanity check against your policy and can even be configured for revision
control. I can think of a few megabucks firewall vendors that don't even
offer that functionality.

Why I need a GUI & policy based framework for implementing my 
firewalls, when my requirements are static? Well, I may need to add 
additional role to a server on the LAN, if any other server fails. 
In fact, I intend to keep the services prepared on alternate 
servers, only not deploy them redundantly. Secondly, never know when 
needs change and something that is easily configured and deployed

would adapt better.
