Linux Firewall Management System (LFMS)

Tags:
firewalls

Overview This paper details the functionality, design, and implementation of the Linux Firewall Management System (LFMS) project. The purpose of LFMS is to provide an application capable of easily administrating any number of firewalls, and to provide this under an open source license. The LFMS project will produce two components. The first one is the core process daemon, which will run as a native Linux process and can be executed in either client or server mode. The second component is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that will provide a simple and intuitive way to configure the firewall. The central concept of the project is to use a client/server inheritance model to make the firewall configuration process fast and simple.
