I am curious as to people's opinion on which Firewall setup to use.
I am currently using iptables in my Cisco router as my firewall solution but would like to use something a little more user friendly and maybe better (if possible).
I thought about maybe something like a stand alone linux machine running some sort of firewall software that makes the sole purpose of that machine a firewall.
I also thought about opening all ports coming to Plesk in my current setup and using the Plesk firewall built into Plesk. The downside to this I guess is that you then allow traffic to come inside your network before stopping it at the box. Plus that would only make configing that machine easy as opposed to the whole network.
What would you reccommend as the best solution?
