Screenshots and Demos

With Firewall Builder, administrator can manage multiple firewalls using the same database of network objects. Change made to an object is immediately reflected in the policy of all firewalls using this object.

Built-in interactive installer uses ssh to communicated with the firewall and can automatically copy generated policy and activate it. Installer supports batch mode and can update policy of multiple firewalls in one session.

In Firewall Builder, administrator works with an abstraction of firewall policy and NAT rules; software effectively "hides" specifics of particular target firewall platform and helps administrator focus on implementation of security policy.
