Open Source Linux Firewall Software

BASE is the Basic Analysis and Security Engine. It is based on the code from the Analysis Console for Intrusion Databases (ACID) project. This application provides a web front-end to query and analyze the alerts coming from a SNORT IDS system.

Fail2Ban monitors log files like /var/log/pwdfail or /var/log/apache/error_log and bans failure-prone addresses. It updates firewall rules to reject the IP address or executes user defined commands.

360-FAAR (Firewall Analysis Audit and Repair) is an offline, command line, firewall policy manipulation tool to filter, compare to logs, merge, translate and output firewall commands for new policies, in Checkpoint dbedit, Cisco ASA or ScreenOS commands, and its one file! Read Policy and Logs for: Checkpoint FW1 (in odumper.csv / logexport format), Netscreen ScreenOS (in get config / syslog format), Cisco ASA (show run / syslog format), 360-FAAR compares firewall policies and uses CIDR and text filters to split rulebases / policies into target sections and identify connectivity for further analysis. 360-FAAR supports, policy to log association, object translation, rulebase reordering and simplification, rule moves and duplicate matching automatically. Allowing you to move rules to where you need them. Build new rulebases from scratch with a single 'any' rule and log files, with the 'res' and 'name' options. Switch into DROPS mode to analyse drop log entries.

BASE+ (Basic Analysis and Security Engine) is based on ACID project. This application provides a web front-end to query and analyze the alerts coming from various IDS systems (e.g. Snort).

The Distributed Intrusion Detection System.

FWReport is a log parser and reporting tool for IPTables. It generates daily and monthy summaries of the log files, allowing the admin to free up substantial time, maintain better control over security of the network, and reduce unnoticed attacks.

IP Traffic Volume: Logs (counts) in- & outgoing bytes through network device(s) using kernel iptables. Highly configurable as to which bytes are logged, e.g. to/from specific ports or ip-addresses. Data displayed in html via cgi or plain ascii to console

IPFWstats is a suite of shell, perl and PHP scripts to count network traffic on a per user basis on a server using the FreeBSD IPFW firewall. Statistics are imported into a MySQL database daily and can then be viewed using a PHP script in a web browser

What are the packets rejected by your Netfilter based firewall today ? How often this suspicious host try to connect to your box ? What are the most rejected domains ? Who is this strange host which scan your ports ? The responses are in the iptables log

This very simple perl script parses you iptables log files and produces a report in text format with a summary based on the prefix of the log ( --log-prefix option of iptables ). Prefix description is allowed.

A command line tool that allows you to (live) analyze netfilter (iptables) log files. It provides a nice output and has features like displaying hostnames, duplicate detection... More info (+ screenshots) can be found in the pdf inside the tarball.

Loganalyzer for Windows XP Firewall and Linux Iptables firewall. Generates a nice html document with statistics from all the pakets captured by the firewall. The program is written in Python and has an (optional) graphical interface.

This Daemon written in Perl, logs FreeBSD ipfw ip accounting counters every X seconds/minutes, so after rebooting, crashing, flushing, zero out your ipfirewall table, you don't loose any mayor traffic information.

The p2p_grab script will make a log which is useful to generate an IP list. This list is inserted in cbq to shape the bandwidth for the users that use P2P programs. Also the IP list can be inserted in an iptables firewall script...

Schedule emailing of your Smoothwall logs. Schedule on a daily/weekly/monthly basis via cron jobs. Formatting options are text and html. csv formatting planned.

Perl logfile analyzer for DELL Sonicwall Firewall logfiles. This Perl program (Windows /Linux / Mac), creates an HTML file containing: hits per protocol, mean, median and variance on hourly and weekday basis, RBL statistics, IPS stats, VPN stats, virus stats, surfing statistics, CFS blocked sites stats.

The Plague provides a web UI to a MySQL db of parsed syslog data. The focus has been security reporting. The logs supported (so far) are NetScreen firewalls, Cisco routers and switches and PIXen, Gauntlet firewalls.

Traffic Control is a Linux toolbox to control squid, NAT, and other services traffic limits. TF uses Linux iptables to count traffic. This utility consists of two parts. The first is server side (written in Perl) and the second part is the interface.

UNIX billing system, for network servers, voip, etc.

Flexible web-based firewall log analyzer, supporting netfilter and ipfilter, ipfw, ipchains, cisco routers and Windows XP system logs, and mysql or postgresql database logs using the iptables ULOG or NFLOG target of netfilter others mapped to the ulogd format with a view. Fully supports IPv6 for database logs, and netfilter and ipfilter system file logs. Also supports Maxmind's GeoIP version 2 location databases. For Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, OSX,etc.

fwgraph is an attempt to characterize and present network traffic including network devices, QoS, and iptables under Linux.

"GETO" is NIPS system. NIPS is a system which prevent any abnormal network user from access your valuable server.

nf_quota is an ip-based traffic accounting project. IPs can be added to users. It provides a kernel module that hooks onto netfilter and counts every packet passing a specified interface. If the quota for a ip/user is exceeded, the packet is dropped.

PFL can either operate as a stand-alone firewall log parser or set up to run and configure ipfw. The major focus is parsing, compressing, and filtering *NIX (to include Mac OSX) firewall logs generated by IPFW for quick and easy admin review.

a logging system for openbsd's pf. uses postgresql for storage, and is designed to cope with an unreliable network connection to the database.
