Firewall Builder 5.3.0 Release Notes

SourceForge: Tickets

Summary

In addition to bug fixes and minor enhancements, v 5.3 includes the following new features:

Support for Junos Access lists

Firewall Builder now supports generating output for the Junos platform. This implementation is based on the Cisco IOS code and shares codebase where applicable.

Units and interfaces

The Junos compiler expects the units to be subinterfaces of the main interfaces. E.g. unit 10 is a subinterface of ge-0/0/0.

To configure ge-0/0/0 unit 10, do the following steps:

  1. Add a new interface and rename to ge-0/0/0
  2. Add a new interface and rename to unit 10
  3. Make interface unit 10 a subinterface of ge-0/0/0

Deny and Reject

In the policy viewer, the Deny action will generate the following output
then { discard; }
while the Reject action will generate
then { reject; }
You may set parameters for the Reject action to specify ICMP reply.
