Ah. So not a few rules for a handful of machines on a single ipcop then! -------Original Message------- From: John Edwards Date: 25/09/2011 10:09:58 To: Steve Cc: IPCOP devel Subject: Re: [IPCop-devel] Correct way to transfer V1.4 rules to V2.0?

I've had firewalls with over 50 rules for port forwarding (about 10 port forwards for 5+ machines). If you then include access restrictions for each of those you easily get 100s per firewall. We look after about 15 firewalls, so that is potentially 1000s of rules to enter. Entering those manually will mean mistakes. Dealing with boring and time consuming data transformation is an excellent job for a computer. A simple sed or awk script should able to transform a comma separated file format. -- #---------------------------------------------------------# | John Edwards Email: john-C/[email protected] | #---------------------------------------------------------# ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
