Try googling for FreeBSD gateway router/firewall and combinations of the above. You'll get more howto's and pages of advice than you'll ever need.

Re: setup firewall/router/proxy
Oki all, If it isn't too much of a bother, someone asked me the same question, but for a platform I'm unfamiliar with -- a 2.4.18-6mdk (Mandrake) linux distro. As the target is not freebsd, I'll be happy with any technical response, and off-list is probably better than on. TiA, Eric What are the best firewall - routing and proxy packages for FreeBSD ?

TiA, Eric It's been a long time since I've played with Linux in general, last one was RH. If Mandrake has ipchains or ipfw, I'd say go with either and still use squid. It's popular, easy to configure, works well and has support. It shouldn't need any routing daemon as long as none of the advanced routing protocols are needed. -- Micheal Patterson TSG Network Administration 405-917-0600 Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.

It's popular, easy to configure, works well and has support. It shouldn't need any routing daemon as long as none of the advanced routing protocols are needed. I assumed by ``routing'', you meant Network Address Translation (NAT), which is called natd and is included as part of the base system. `routed', is a router _discovery_ protocol, and used if your router has multiple routes and the network is configured to share this information. If you simply want an internal network translated to a public IP, use natd+IPFW (my choice), and if you have more than the default route for the internal network, for simplicity sake you can manipulate your routing table and specify static routes using the route(8) command. ...and as I and others have said, squid is probably the best choice for proxy. Using IPFW with a squid proxy, you can even configure it for transparent mode, so you don't have to modify the browsers at all. There are a few docs out there for this...
