Today we are proud to announce the release 2.3 of Endian UTM Appliances and Endian Firewall Community. It includes many features previously available only to Enterprise users as well as some completely new features. Some highlights:

  • Dashboard
    The main page has been replaced by a dashboard with statistics about the system and its services as well as live-graphs for incoming and outgoing traffic.
  • HTTP proxy with user- and group-based content filtering
    The HTTP proxy now has a new and polished web interface that adds the possibility to create group based content filters.

The Hidden Features are coming

Friday, July 24, 2009

The Hidden Features Hi blog-readers!!

Hey, is there anybody out there?
Ok, let’s hope someone is reading this blog..

Some days ago I was talking to Peter and I had an incredible idea..

me: hey pito, do you remember the command for that (super-secret-feature)
pito:
easy! the (super-secret-feature) is almost finished, just write that .. in /var/efw/..
me:
but that means the (super-secret-feature) is ready and working!
pito: yes it is, just the GUI is missing
me: great! but who knows about that?
pito:
me: ok, I’ve just found my mission. I’ll write about this (super-secret-feature) in my first blog post!

After a while I realized that our firewall has lot of cool features that nobody knows.
So I decided to start a series of posts called “The Hidden Features” of Endian of course!

Want to know more about Peter’s super-secret-feature?
Stay tuned and wait until next week.

Have fun with your Endian!
