NEW • Development Release: m0n0wall 1.3 Beta 1 |
| The first beta of the FreeBSD-based m0n0wall firewall, version 1.3, has been released. What's new? "Changed base system to FreeBSD 6.2-RC1 (final 1.3 version will be based on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE); added support for new wireless features in FreeBSD 6; Atheros cards are finally supported; channel selection on interface setup page now reflects actual capabilities of card; wireless status page shows scanned APs in client mode and associated stations in hostap mode; WPA support is expected in the next release; the configuration may now also be stored on an USB memory stick (instead of a floppy disk); removed MTU option from Interfaces: WAN page; a rather intrusive kernel patch was required to make concurrent traffic shaping + NAT on the WAN interface possible." Read the full changelog on the project's beta page for more details. Download: cdrom-1.3b1.iso (8.14MB, MD5). |

| About m0n0wall |
| m0n0wall is a project aimed at creating a complete, embedded firewall software package that, when used together with an embedded PC, provides all the important features of commercial firewall boxes (including ease of use) at a fraction of the price (free software). m0n0wall is based on a bare-bones version of FreeBSD, along with a web server (thttpd), PHP and a few other utilities. The entire system configuration is stored in one single XML text file to keep things transparent. m0n0wall is probably the first UNIX system that has its boot-time configuration done with PHP, rather than the usual shell scripts, and that has the entire system configuration stored in XML format. |
