Firewall Builder 3.0.2 (Default 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:
The built-in installer now uses scp (pscp.exe on Windows) to copy files to the firewall, which makes it work much faster. Optional data file compression was implemented. Support for pure mangle table rule sets for iptables was added. Significant improvements were made in the speed of the shadowing detection for all compilers (up to five times on large linear policies). There were numerous bugfixes and improvements in the GUI and policy compilers. 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.
