m0n0wall is a popular open source firewall package.
For those of you not familiar with the m0n0wall community, I write the vast majority of the m0n0wall documentation.
If your questions or comments are directly related to m0n0wall itself, please use the m0n0wall mailing list (I reply to most of the messages there anyway, and will see your message).

 OpenVPN for m0n0wall: Road Warrior Scenario
M0n0wall uses UDP port 1194 by default (this is the OpenVPN default).
M0n0wall tailors the usage of addresses and routes depending on the tunnel type.
In the filter rules section of the m0n0wall, select the 'OpenVPN Server' tab and create a rule on the OpenVPN Server interface to allow incoming packets from the OpenVPN Clients (there is a convenient shortcut for this which maps to the OpenVPN address block) to your Lan subnet.

Today, we will be examining m0n0wall, a free operating system designed by Manuel Kasper which allows any x86 based computer to become an embedded network firewall with a web based configuration.
By default, the m0n0wall is configured to block all incoming connections from the WAN.
The in depth configuration of m0n0wall is far beyond the scope of this article, but there is excellent documentation at http://doc.m0n0.ch/handbook/ ; In addition, the webGUI provides concise explanations of each setting's function.

  Computer Shopper: Product Reviews: M0N0WALL m0n0wall 1.0
The m0n0wall project has developed a complete firewall software package that, when installed on a PC, provides all the important features of commercial firewall boxes and is as easy to use.
M0n0wall is based on a cut-down version of FreeBSD, a free UNIX system, and a number of enhancements have been made to transform it into a feature-packed system that rivals commercial firewall appliances and software.
The documentation for m0n0wall is decent but not quite up to commercial standards, which is an important consideration, and this is reflected in the star rating.

 Getting Started with m0n0wall
In Figure 1, m0n0wall is being used to connect a small home network, the LAN, to the internet, which is the biggest WAN of all.
If you plan to run m0n0wall on the wonderful embedded-style hardware from Soekris (either the net4501 or net4801 series of devices), the process of setting up the hardware could not be more simple.
Once m0n0wall is configured for your network and has rebooted to activate that configuration, you will want the systems on your internal network (LAN) to connect to the internet through m0n0wall.

 m0n0wall Virtual Appliance
The m0n0wall project has been around for more than three years, and in this time has become one of the most popular open source firewall distributions due to its reliability, speed, flexibility, minimal hardware requirements, and ease of management.
m0n0wall is a stripped down version of FreeBSD 4.11, using some minor kernel patches for bug fixes specific to the m0n0wall environment, and some patches to the included applications.
Since m0n0wall extracts its file system into RAM at boot time and runs from RAM, any changes made to the file system of a running m0n0wall installation are lost at reboot.

 M0n0wall and Soekris embedded firewall and VPN

 m0n0wall and Microsoft Virtual Server at blog.durdle.com
Now add two more NICs.  I add two because m0n0wall always expects the second NIC to be used for sharing a WAN connection (broadband internet) and it’s easier to ignore this interface and route between the LAN and OPT interfaces.  (This will make sense once you see the web interface.)
We used m0n0wall to route between three different sites using its traffic shaping features to simulate lossy and high latency links.  I may go into the details of how to set that up, although the manuals on their site are pretty clear.
m0n0wall combined with Virtual Server mean you can do some pretty smart infrastructure simulation.  I’ve successfully routed between virtual machines across multiple host machines and real machines on the same networks.  Neat.

 Criggie Stuff
Well, after doing other things for a while, I found out what caused my weirdness with m0n0wall 1.0 Because I had my linux box acting as firewall and server, the firewall script assumed that only local IPs would come in eth0, and only non-private IPs would be coming in on eth1.
Therefore my m0n0wall box is NATting traffic in from the WAN to the LAN.
I'm new to m0n0wall, and have it working fine in every respect but one.

m0n0wall is quite powerful, and I have been pretty impressed by its offerings, especially considering I was able to use it to set up a pretty low-cost Wi-Fi hotspot for my stingy coffeeshop-owning friend.
I haven't played with m0n0wall as much as I'd like to, but it even has the ability to shape traffic going through the m0n0wall box.
Using the Magic Shaper Wizard of the m0n0wall GUI, you can do such things as set P2P traffic to the lowest priority, or even set things to share bandwidth evenly across all of your LAN users.
