floppyfw

floppyfw

floppyfw is a router with the advanced firewall-capabilities in Linux that fits on one single floppy disk.

Features:
  • Access lists, IP-masquerading (Network Address Translation), connection tracked packet filtering and (quite) advanced routing. Package for traffic shaping is also available.
  • Requires only a 386sx or better with two network interface cards, a 1.44MB floppy drive and 12MByte of RAM (for less than 12M and no FPU, use the 1.0 series, which will stay maintained.)
  • Very simple packaging system. Is used for editors, PPP, VPN, traffic shaping and whatever comes up.
  • Logging through klogd/syslogd, both local and remote.
  • Serial support for console over serial port.
  • DHCP server and DNS cache for internal networks.
