Package Descriptions

SuSEfirewall2
Stateful packetfilter using iptables and netfilter

SuSEfirewall2 implements a packetfilter to allow system administrators
to protect their computer and network by restricting the possibility of
other hosts connecting to them. This potentially saves you from
suffering under the design flaws and vulnerabilties that are found in
various daemons.
SuSEfirewall2 uses the iptables/netfilter packet filtering
infrastructure which allows a flexible rule setup and the creation of a
stateful firewall, as it keeps track of connections and has the notion
of related connections.
For simply protecting a single host from attacks, you can set
SuSEfirewall2 in QUICK mode or use the personal-firewall configuration
file. Note that SuSEfirewall2 nowadays does include the
personal-firewall functionality.
