Bifrost is a firewall management interface to iptables (iptables GUI). The system is inspired by Checkpoint and Watchguard firewall management. We looked at the way Checkpoint works with source, destination, action and logging. At the same time, we are managing incoming and outgoing traffic in a similar way as Watchguard and PIX Firewalls.

Requirements:
iptables >=v1.2.3
iproute2
Apache
perl

What's New in This Release:
This is a minor release. It is now possible to enable routing on the same interface. I.e. it is possible to allow traffic to both enter and exit on the same interface. This kind of traffic is considered as Outgoing traffic. To enable routing on the same interface, change the parameter $RoutSelf in fw.cgi to 1, i.e. $RoutSelf=1;
