<pkgmetadata> <maintainer type="project"> <email>netmon@gentoo.org</email> <name>Gentoo network monitoring and analysis project</name> </maintainer> <longdescription lang="en"> The Shoreline Firewall, more commonly known as "Shorewall", is high-level tool for configuring Netfilter. You describe your firewall/gateway requirements using entries in a set of configuration files. Shorewall reads those configuration files and with the help of the iptables, iptables-restore, ip and tc utilities, Shorewall configures Netfilter and the Linux networking subsystem to match your requirements. Shorewall can be used on a dedicated firewall system, a multi-function gateway/router/server or on a standalone GNU/Linux system. Shorewall does not use Netfilter's ipchains compatibility mode and can thus take advantage of Netfilter's connection state tracking capabilities. Shorewall is not a daemon. Once Shorewall has configured the Linux networking subsystem, its job is complete and there is no "Shorewall process" left running in your system. The /usr/sbin/shorewall program can be used at any time to monitor the Netfilter firewall. </longdescription> <use> <flag name="init">Adds the capability to place the firewall in a safe state prior to bringing up the network interfaces</flag> <flag name="ipv4">Installs everything needed to create a full IPv4 firewall</flag> <flag name="ipv6">Adds the capability to create a full IPv6 firewall (requires <pkg>net-firewall/shorewall</pkg> ipv4 USE flag)</flag> <flag name="lite4">Installs everything needed to just *run* an IPv4 compiled firewall script created with <pkg>net-firewall/shorewall</pkg> ipv4 USE flag</flag> <flag name="lite6">Installs everything needed to just *run* an IPv6 compiled firewall script created with <pkg>net-firewall/shorewall</pkg> ipv6 USE flag</flag> </use> <upstream> <doc lang="en">http://shorewall.net/Documentation_Index.html</doc> <remote-id type="sourceforge">shorewall</remote-id> </upstream> </pkgmetadata>
