Hi,

I liked webmin's firewall module a lot. It looks clean and has all
possible options.

You'll have to create a 'standard' firewall configuration file with
'iptables-save' to make it parsable. But from there, it is quite straigt
forward to understand.

This removes the pain of the very frustrating (yet logical) command
line. Besides, good knowledge of iptables is not optional ;)

bye,

Guys - I think you may have misunderstood me. I want something to consume existing firewall rules and present them in 
a GUI so that I can review it...

Hi,

I need to review an IPtables rule set  but Iptable syntax is killing me :((. Any guidance on tools that can 
simplify it?


cheers

You could get a product like Splunk or setup a Linux box with syslogng and zabbix for the monitoring and logging. 
External companies that monitor firewalls usually create an ssl or vpn connection via the internet to your devices 
to pull in logging information. Depending on what you would like them to do, just logging or config changes you 
will need to give them access for this.
