1sthost Firewall and Security

pfSense Firmware

pfSense firmware is an open source firewall and router distribution based on FreeBSD that is functionally competitive with expensive, proprietary commercial firewalls.

pfSense software-based appliances can be configured as a stateful packet filtering firewall, a LAN or WAN router, VPN Appliance, DHCP Server, DNS Server, or can be configured for other applications and special purpose appliances. This next generation pfSense security appliance features include:

Stateful packet filtering firewall or pure router
Routing policy per gateway and per-rule for failover and load balancing
Transparent layer 2 firewall
Support for IPV6, NAT, BGP
Captive portal with MAC filtering, RADIUS support, etc
VPN: IPsec, OpenVPN, L2TP
Dynamic DNS client
Reporting and monitoring features with real time information

Overview

The pfSense project is an network firewall distribution, based on the FreeBSD operating system with a custom kernel and including third party free software packages for additional functionality. pfSense software, with the help of the package system, is able to provide the same functionality or more of common commercial firewalls, without any of the artificial limitations. It has successfully replaced every big name commercial firewall you can imagine in numerous installations around the world, including Check Point, Cisco PIX, Cisco ASA, Juniper, Sonicwall, Netgear, Watchguard, Astaro, and more.

pfSense software includes a web interface for the configuration of all included components. There is no need for any UNIX knowledge, no need to use the command line for anything, and no need to ever manually edit any rule sets. Users familiar with commercial firewalls catch on to the web interface quickly, though there can be a learning curve for users not familiar with commercial-grade firewalls.

Hardware Selection

Unlike most common commercial firewalls offerings, the pfSense project is just the software portion of the firewall. This means you get to tailor the hardware you choose to meet your environment's specific needs. You can use the live CD or memstick to test out your hardware without installing to the hard drive, or install to a compact flash card for embedded systems.

Configuration

How you configure the pfSense software is largely dependant on the needs you're trying to meet.

If you need professional assistance configuring your deployment, you can use our commercial support and local implementation to help get you up and running.
