Shorewall allows firewall/gateway requirements to be described using entries in a set of configuration files. It reads those configuration files and, with the help of the iptables utility, configures netfilter to match these requirements. . Shorewall supports a wide range of router/firewall/gateway applications, traffic shaping and almost every type of VPN. . This package contains files needed by both the Perl-based and shell-based compilers.
