We used to have a function to print all the objects and firewall rules in HTML in GUI in the Firewall Builder v1.1.x. This function disappeared in 2.0 but apparently it was useful enough so users do not want to let it die just like that. Frank Weis <Frank.Weis@cte.lu> contributed improved XSLT script to the project. Script name is new-policy-html.xsl, you can download it from the "Scripts" section on our SourceForge site
Frank says:
new-policy-html.xsl is an XSLT file that can be used to generate an HTML view of fwbuilder policy files, using xsltproc (wich is part of libxslt).
xsltproc new-policy-html.xsl x.fwb
The ouptut is grouped by object types, and there are a lot of anchors and links that let you jump from object reference to its definition.
This is by no way complete, nor performant or clean xsl code. Feel free to comment, improve or let me know your suggestions.
Here is the list of third-party modules, scripts and projects that relate to Firewall Builder in one way or another.
All these projects are maintained by thir respective authors and may fall behind if the authors do not follow development of Firewall Builder. Please contact authors if you have questions or need support with these products.
This module will be an add-on to Firewall Builder that will allow a user to create, compile, and apply firewall rules to a machine with Netnice
This tool helps you migrating existing Checkpoint Firewall 1 Installation and Rulesets to Linux or *BSD based Firewall. This is done by converting the Rulebase- and the Objects- Database from Checkpoint to the FirewallBuilder XML Format.
This is a patch for fwbuilder 2.0.5 that adds support for static routing configuration on Linux. This patch will be integrated in fwbuilder v2.1
The fwb-optimizer is an firewall rule optimizer written in perl/xml::twig. It resolves negative rules, groups and delete redundant rules, and it is possible to sort often used rules up, for more performance. The result is a new and (mostly) cleaner fwbuilder xml file.
