About:
FIAIF is an Intelligent Firewall. It provides a highly customizable script for setting up an iptables-based firewall. Configuration is done through one configuration file for each network to which the firewall is connected. FIAIF supports masquerading, port forwarding, traffic shaping, and more.

Release focus: Minor feature enhancements

Changes:
This release adds HSFC-based traffic shaping, which is optimized for VoIP setups. A problem where DHCP requests were getting dropped by the firewall has been fixed, as well as ACCEPT_LOG, which was not accepting packets correctly.

[»] Everything worked fine and smooth
by ippo - Jan 14th 2004 07:18:30

Hello!

I've searched for a good firewall configuration script or similar for a while. This tool is the only one I've found that has everything I want:

- Simple to understand, lots of configuration but not too much

- Handles the most tipical situation (or at least the situation I have seen more in my experience): External zone (for clients), Internal Zone, Another external zone for servers, DMZ zone.

- Last but not least: it works! And the traffic inside and outside is working too!

Often, with other tools, after running the firewall I simply could not get any traffinc neither inside-out nor outside-in, not even auhorized traffic!

Many thanks and congratulations to the author!

Ippo
