ITVal is an open source utility for testing, and debugging iptables firewall policies. It can detect many different kinds of errors, such as typos, out-of-order rules, faulty understanding of the firewall, or poor assumptions about the policy logic. ...

Current development on ITVal focuses on ways to partially automate repair of the policy. [Less]
