Rantings by Nick Buraglio

Once again the pfSense team has given the open source and commercial community another great release of their marvelous firewall software. CHECK IT OUT, DONATE, or HELP OUT!

These guys are rocking right along with the Layer 7 QoS stuff for pfSense.

I can’t wait to get some time to test it.

I’m not really sure how I missed this, probably because it’s some students doing the work, but nevertheless, it’s very exciting.
This is something that has been unavailable for the most part under *BSD, but available for quite some time under Linux. I personally don’t like iptables and find it much less elegant than pf, both in implementation and practice so seeing this work is very encouraging and I can’t wait to test it out.
Adding this into pfSense is a very exciting thing!

BGP, QoS, L7, pf, CARP (and OSPF if I can get off my butt and finish the GUI), pfSense is going to take over the world!
