.SH SYNOPSIS
|

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
|
|
.B fwbuilder
|
|
is the Graphic User Interface (GUI) component of Firewall Builder.
|
|
|
|
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. GUI
|
|
generates firewall description in the form of XML file,
|
|
which compilers then interpret and generate platform-specific
|
|
code. Several algorithms are provided for automated
|
|
network objects discovery and bulk import of data. The
|
|
GUI and policy compilers are completely independent,
|
|
this provides for a consistent abstract model and the
|
|
same GUI for different firewall platforms.
|
|
|
|
At the moment of this writing Firewall Builder supports firewalls
|
|
based on iptables (available on Linux, kernel 2.4.x, see
|
|
fwb_ipt(1)), ipfilter (available on a variety of platforms
|
|
including *BSD, Solaris and others, see fwb_ipf(1)) and pf (available
|
|
on OpenBSD 3.0, see fwb_pf(1))
