Easy Firewall Generator for IPTables simply generate script for setting iptables. Advantage is its simplicity, because this program is written in PHP.

I have generalized it to include a number of features that are commonly used, but it is targeted at single computers or gateways for small private networks. It's designed to easily generate a full-featured iptables configuration script with a variety of the most commonly desired options.

This program is written in PHP. You can use the installation here, or download the source and use or modify it yourself. It's licensed under the GPL, but if you have any useful modifications or suggestions, please send them to me at scott at morizot dot net.

What's New in This Release:
Added rule to do ingress filtering as suggested by Brian Buchanan
Changed the rule to drop broadcasts that would otherwise be dropped to a better rule als suggested by Brian Buchanan
Added rules in bad_tcp_packets to filter packets with illegal tcp flag combinations. This will lock many stealth scans.
Added the option to support inbound mDNSResponder.
