PfSense Resource. PfSense is an open source firewall/router computer software distribution based on FreeBSD. It can be installed on either physical or virtual machines, and it offers a high-level configuration interface, by means of a web dashboard, as well as a low-level interface by means of SSH. Furthermore, pfSense supports the installation of third-party packages, that can be included. Exploiting this mechanism, the resource made available for SoftFIRE experimenters provides a ReST interface through which it is possible to configure and modify every property of the pfSense. The packet used to provide the ReST interface is the FauxAPI extension (please refer to the official repository for more details about). Moreover, the credentials of the Experimenter are pushed in the Virtual Machine, so that user only is able to access each of the available interfaces. This is a list of the main features offered by pfSense OS: • Firewall with stateful packet inspection • IPv4 and IPv6 support • Traffic Shaping • NAT • Load Balancing • VPN - IPsec, OpenVPN, L2TP • Dynamic DNS • DHCP Server and Relay More detailed information about pfSense can be found on the official website and documentation.
