Tip

If compiler finds problems with configuration and issues any warning or error messages, the program highlights them using different color (blue for warnings and red for errors). Click on the warning and error message and the GUI will switch to the firewall object, open corresponding rule set and highlight the rule that caused the message.

Compiler generates an iptables script in a ".fw" file with the name the same as the firewall object (guardian.fw). The file is placed in the same directory as the .fwb data file. Generated iptables script supports standard startup script parameters "start", "stop", "status", "reload" and can be used in place of the standard system firewall script in the /etc/init.d/ directory.
