An iptables front-end to allow rules to be expressed in a more flexible, free-form style using language closer to plain-English than iptables commands. Rules are then compiled to normal iptables commands.

Features

  • Plain language declaration of firewall rules
  • Declare hostgroups to use in rules to avoid duplication
  • Built-in standard protections to simplify common rules
  • Ability to generate iptables scripts for atomic reloads
  • Depends on only 3 Perl modules

Project Samples

Sample ruleset file Husk configuration file and compiling rules using 'fire' script
