Less powerful than FireWall-1, but quite similar and pretty good.

If you ask me, IPFilter's main feature is stateful inspection and NAT
redirection, everything else is similar to FW-1 in many ways, but then
again, these are the concepts that any modern firewalling software supports
these days.

Everyone will most likely have their own advantages to IPFilter, as we all
integrate it to fit our own designs and purposes.

If you want THE #1, then be prepared to spit $20,000 USD on an enterprise
license and get FireWall-1.
