Nog eentje dan.
Die ingebouwde firewall van de standaard installatie van OSX is een beetje heel eenvoudig voorzien van een heel eenvoudig gebruikers interface. Maar er is natuurlijk veel meer mogelijk met dat ding.
Flying Buttress belooft dat het de standaard config van de OSX firewall kan tweaken tot een full-swing firewall.
Aldus de site:
* Firewall filters that include qualifiers on host or network addresses
* Firewall filters that operate on other than TCP or UDP protocols
* Firewall filters that include the whole range of ipfw qualifiers, such as IP options, ICMP types or TCP flags
* Per-filter logging configuration, including the ability to log allowed connections and the option to not log certain types of denied connections
* NAT port forwarding or other custom NAT configuration
* Different filter configurations on different network interfaces.
* A persistant, searchable firewall log entry database with graphical log viewer
* Scriptable control of your firewall, such as via cron or other shell automation
* Access and ability to easily edit the raw firewall configuration text, including an integrated ipfw filter syntax checker.
* The ability to switch between different firewall configuration sets quickly and easily.
