Hi!
I am using fwbuilder for years and very happy with it, but the software is not developed anymore. So, I need to look for alternatives.
fwbuilder was/is a great software to:
- configure many different firewalls
- with shared objects
- possibility to use DNS-names
- no vendor-lock-in
At the moment, I am maintaining about 10 linux-firewalls, some of them HA-systems with hundreds of rules. The great thing for me is, that fwbuilder lets me hardware-independently manage the rules. If a systems changes its IP, I can simply change the referenced object.
Do you know any good alternative for this?
I tried different products, but there was never a vendor-independent approach on managing the objects.
What do you use?
Regards
Stril
