#1 - FreeBSD handbook. Once you understand FreeBSD, then move on to PF. Don't bother with the other packet filters unless you have a need to be compatible with ipfw/ipf. #2 - For PF, a lot of the docs are for OpenBSD. This is fine, FreeBSD uses the same PF. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls-pf.html http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-pf http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/ #3 - If you need traffic shaping/QoS/etc, ALTQ is what you need. http://www.csl.sony.co.jp/person/kjc/kjc/software.html Have fun! David PS - Some books on firewall design might help you out. :) Sounds like you're just going to be doing basic NAT though, which is a ten minute setup if you read the docs! ----- Original Message ----- From: Abimanyu Gottumukkala <abhi151285@gmail.com> Date: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 10:51 am Subject: Buidling small freebsd router > Hai friend i want to build small freebsd based router. will u please > suggest any tutorials or books > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-isp@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-isp > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-isp-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
