Firewall Builder 3.0.0 rev 452 (Beta branch)
Image Firewall Builder consists of a GUI and set of policy compilers for various firewall platforms. It helps users maintain a database of objects and allows policy editing using simple drag-and-drop operations. The GUI and policy compilers are completely independent, which provides for a consistent abstract model and the same GUI for different firewall platforms. It currently supports iptables, ipfilter, ipfw, OpenBSD pf, Cisco PIX and FWSM, and Cisco routers access lists. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
This revision comes with built-in help; the first dialogs to get help panels are the "advanced" settings dialogs for the iptables firewall. Help panels explain all options and parameters in the corresponding dialogs. The command line tool fwbedit underwent a complete redesign. Fwbedit can now add, remove, and modify objects in the .fwb file from the command line, which means a lot of routine firewall policy modification operations can be completely scripted. Problems with drag and drop of objects between different data files have been fixed. Binary RPMs for Fedora Core 9 are provided.Image

NAME

       fwb_compile_all - Wrapper script that compiles policies for multiple firewall objects

SYNOPSIS

       fwb_compile_all -ffile.xml [-dwdir] [-av] [obj[ obj ...]]

DESCRIPTION

       fwb_compile_all is a wrapper script that compiles policies for several firewall objects in one batch job. This script takes a list of fire-
       wall object names on the command line (or '-a' command line option, see below) and calls policy compiler for each one. The script correctly
       determines which policy compiler is needed depending on the firewall platform of each object.

OPTIONS

       -a     The script processes all firewall objects in the "/Firewalls" subtree.

       -d wdir
	      Specify  working directory.  Compiler creates file with iptables script in this directory.  If this parameter is missing, then ipta-
	      bles script will be placed in the current working directory.

       -f FILE
	      Specify the name of the data file to be processed.

       -v     Script passes this option to the compiler, this makes it print diagnostic messages indicating its progress.
