[AusNOG] Gateway Router firewall

[Glenn Hocking]

Hi All

For many years been using hand rolled router/firewall boxes for my hosting network gateways. Time 
for an upgrade but still want the flexibility of Linux based systems. Just wondering what others 
like in this area and recommend as assume there should be some good hardened preconfigured systems 
available now. Prefer open source Linux and free.

What I currently use is,

OS: Debian Linux
BGP: quagga
Firewall: iptables
Load balancing and HA: ipvsadm + perl
Monitoring: ipt_netflow + nfsen

Cheers
