Hi all, my officemate asked me recently, if there is any tool available to analyze the shorewall policies and rules to get a "picture" of the allowed connections, or to get a list of allowed connections for a given IP.
Since firewall rules tend to get more complex and confusing over the time :-) I don't think it's a dumb question, especially if the main work is done by one person and the other person is only envolved in holiday times, like it often is practice in small businesses. There are a few projects out there which try to analyze the output of iptables, but I didn't find anything really useful. So, before I try to develop something by myself, just the question: Does anybody here know of a working tool for analyzing or visualizing the firewall ruleset (based on the shorewall configuration or output of iptables)? Has anybody here developed some scripts I could take as base, so I don't need to invent the wheel a second time?
