The Lounge What is on Your Mind? What would you do with a Acer TravelMate 512DX Post 302423778 by Xethron on Saturday 22nd of May 2010 09:47:24 AM

Aah, is that what its called! Thanks.

Seems like ill have to dig up another old computer... hehe. Do both.

bakunin, I heard you could install a antivirus on Unix that checks windows viruses. Dunno if this little processor can handle something like that thou...

Was wondering if this lil processor could handle the firewall with a squid proxy server and router. Coz this is what I understand would be a great setup...

Use the Routers built in firewall and set rules to rout everything to the firewall. The firewall will have two network cards, one going into the routers switch (Which would waiste the switch part) and the other going into another switch on which our network is connected. On that machine we have the firewall, behind that the squid proxy, and a Windows Anit Virus in there somewhere. Game ports would be opened to skip the proxy server so they can reach my brother's computer faster reducing lag. All other ports would be scanned for viruses and then cashed for later use (maybe).

Wireless would obviously not be able to run through the firewall as it is built into the router. Advanced routing settings should still be done on the router seeing that the firewall cannot connect to the modem directly.

Would this setup cause increase in lag? For my Gaming Lord brother would he realize the increase in lag? (im guessing all we have to do is forward the ports as directly as possible)

Most articles I could find is mainly based on larger networks for companies, not personal networks for normal families. heh.

Also seems like Redhat or Debian would be my best bet as a OS on the system? (where Redhat almost seems like the better bet)

Thanks for the advice so far. Really looking forward to setting this up.

NAME
fwb_ipt - Policy compiler for Cisco IOS ACL SYNOPSIS
fwb_iosacl [-vV] [-d wdir] [-4] [-6] [-i] -f data_file.xml object_name DESCRIPTION
fwb_iosacl is firewall policy compiler component of Firewall Builder (see fwbuilder(1)). Compiler reads objects definitions and firewall description from the data file specified with "-f" option and generates resultant Cisco IOS ACL configuration file. The configuration is written to the file with the name the same as the name of the firewall object, plus extension ".fw". Compiler generates extended access lists for Cisco routers running IOS v12.x using "ip access-list <name>" syntax. Compiler also generates "ip access-group" commands to assign access lists to interfaces. Generated ACL configuration can be uploaded to the router manually or using built-in installer in the fwbuilder(1) GUI. The data file and the name of the firewall objects must be specified on the command line. Other command line parameters are optional. OPTIONS
-4 Generate iptables script for IPv4 part of the policy. If any rules of the firewall refer to IPv6 addresses, compiler will skip these rules. Options "-4" and "-6" are exclusive. If neither option is used, compiler tries to generate both parts of the script, although generation of the IPv6 part is controlled by the option "Enable IPv6 support" in the "IPv6" tab of the firewall object advanced settings dialog. This option is off by default. -6 Generate iptables script for IPv6 part of the policy. If any rules of the firewall refer to IPv6 addresses, compiler will skip these rules. -f FILE Specify the name of the data file to be processed. -d wdir Specify working directory. Compiler creates file with ACL configuration in this directory. If this parameter is missing, then gen- erated ACL will be placed in the current working directory. -v Be verbose: compiler prints diagnostic messages when it works. -V Print version number and quit. -i When this option is present, the last argument on the command line is supposed to be firewall object ID rather than its name URL
