Linux-based enterprise firewall available free for one-year trial
Aug. 18, 2005

Trustix announced that the latest version (v4.6) of its Linux-based Enterprise Firewall will be available at no charge for one year, with full payment due thereafter if the user chooses to continue using it. The software provides a user-friendly "drag and drop" graphical user interface, instead of the command-line approach of many Linux firewalls.

XSentry enables administrators to visually configure firewall policies, "demilitarized zones," and virtual private networks (VPNs) by simply clicking and dragging connections between servers. The underlying rules generated by the program are then fully optimized before being deployed. This approach reduces the administrator mistakes that often plague other firewalls, Trustix said.

Key improvements in v4.6 are said to include:
  • Enhanced Multi-Platform GUI Interface
  • DHCP Server and Relay support
  • Enhanced monitoring and alerts
  • Advanced logging
  • Advanced high availability capabilities

The Enterprise Firewall 4.6 is available on the Trustix community website.
