Hello all, I'd like to suggest a something for m0n0wall that is in the category of a core firewall feature. It is a requirement for a number of different external security audits that there be an audit trail for any changes made to a firewall. Beyond being a common external audit requirement, it would be a great aid for those of us with complex rule sets to see what we changed and when we changed it. A case in point occured yesterday when I made a number of "innocent" changes which resulted in a periodically critical service to partially fail a day later. Discovering which of the 4 changes caused the problem was a fair headache as I hadn't written down my actions as I performed them. Tracking the changes is something that the GUI could do quite easily but is a pain to do manually and easy to forget. Cheers, Gordon. |
