MandrakeSecurity Multi Network Firewall

MandrakeSoft's integrated network security solution, Multi Network Firewall (MNF), combines firewall, Virtual Private Network (VPN), intrusion detection, and traffic management functions into an easy-to-use product. Through a secure Web interface which utilizes finely-tuned wizards, network administrators can easily build a network, define access rules, filter and monitor Internet content, and perform administration tasks. 

This high performance security solution offers superior economics by eliminating add-on costs such as 3DES VPN licenses and VPN clients. MNF supports an unlimited number of VPN clients. 

MNF is one of the most feature-rich firewall products currently available on the market. MNF is based on Linux 2.4 "kernel secure" to provide multi-VPN (Virtual Private Network) as well as multi-DMZ (de-militarized zone) functionalities. With high throughput IPSec encryption, Multi Network Firewall integrates seamlessly into existing networks and works with a wide variety of operating systems, including MS-WindowsTM.
