hi everyone,

I was thinking... (this is odd :) and I came with one more idea about home
user interface, and it goes like this...

if we manage to create a XML schema or some other LEAF standart to store
filter rules and other config data, I could code a win32 app client to
provide a easy UI for rules creation, log view, and overall config for home
routers. that way the average home user, simply deploys a LEAF image, goes
to his/her win machine, installs the app and uses some wizards to configure
the router.

that wizard would change the default password, apply interface IP changes,
act on the rule set, config the log options, daemons, test internet
connection, config traffic shaping (when fully supported), etc...

users run this wizard on upon the LEAF system installation, and use the app
subsequently for minor changes, log viewing, package updating, etc..

this win client would connect via ssh.

all this providing that LEAF is able to store his configs on some sort of
standart like XML.


comments please...

pedro
