Description-en: Firewall administration tool GUI
Firewall Builder consists of an object-oriented GUI and a set of policy
compilers for various firewall platforms. In Firewall Builder, firewall
policy is a set of rules, each rule consists of abstract objects which
represent real network objects and services (hosts, routers, firewalls,
networks, protocols). Firewall Builder helps the user maintain a database
of objects and allows policy editing using simple drag-and-drop operations.
.
This is the GUI part of fwbuilder
