Firewall Builder

Firewall Builder consists of a GUI and set of policy compilers for various

firewall platforms. It helps users maintain a database of objects and allows

policy editing using simple drag-and-drop operations. GUI generates firewall

description in the form of XML file, which compilers then interpret and generate

platform-specific code. Several algorithms are provided for automated network

objects discovery and bulk import of data. The GUI and policy compilers are

completely independent, this provides for a consistent abstract model and the

same GUI for different firewall platforms.
