This guide teaches you how to implement effective network protection by using your own customized firewall solution. Based on experience, this book distills a set of scenario based scripts & guidelines for a proven firewall solution, into one precise book.Firewalls are used to protect your network from the outside world. Using a Linux firewall, you can do a lot more than just filtering packets.This book shows you how to implement Linux firewalls and Quality of Service using examples from very small to very large networks.After giving us a background of network security, the book moves on to explain the basic technologies we will work with, namely netfilter, iproute2, NAT and l7-filter. These form the crux of building Linux firewalls and QOS. The later part of the book covers 5 real-world networks for which we design the security policies, build the firewall, setup the script, and verify our installation.Providing only necessary theoretical background, the book takes a practical approach, presenting case studies and plenty of illustrative examples.
