Moving to freebsd firewall for a small DataCenter network

2008-09-23 Thread bsd 

Hello,


I have been using FreeBSD for many years as a server and have based  
most of my hosting services on this fantastic OS.
Since three years I have been using SonicWall firewall as a firewall  
device.


As my hosting services are growing, It seems that the SonicWall device  
is quite light for what I am doing. I have now 10 servers hosted on  
one uniq /28 network with direct connexion to the Net.


I was wondering if there is a good if possible integrated firewall  
device running on FreeBSD.
I have deployed local firewall on each of my servers based on ipf.  
Works great, but I am not sure I want to dig all the time into a file  
based config, little visual interface could ease my pain… (of course  
this is optional).


I would like something quite strong but simple that I could deploy on  
a small 1U server or dedicated device.


Any pointer / howto / feed back on experience will be most welcome.


Something similar to this could be nice: http://www.untangle.com/



Thanks for your support.

I think monowall is what you are looking for.

Or his more advanced brother - pfSense.

Either m0n0wall or pfsense seconded here. Advantage pfsense has in a 
datacentre environment is failover, imo
