NSPM - Network Security & Policy Manager

This project was initially designed to provide an online interface to the Linux Netfilter/Iptables firewall, and this without prior knowledge of the related CLI commands and options. Different interfaces already exist but most of them require a fresh install of a specific Linux distribution such as the well-known IPCop, need an existing Webmin-like core component, or must be run under X environment. For those who want to keep their own Linux flavor, already have a panel of services running on their gateway, or need to easily and remotely administrate their firewall through a standard web browser, this application should fit their needs.
