EPIA CL Linux Firewall/Router Project
October 13, 2003

We thought it was time for another Linux project, so inspired by the Rumba Server Appliance we decided to build a Firewall/Router over the weekend using an EPIA CL and Redhat Linux. The EPIA CL has 2 Network Interfaces on board, making it ideal for use as a basic Two-Interface Firewall, in combination with an ADSL or Cable Modem. This guide will also apply to any EPIA with an additional NIC on a PCI card. The advantage of using the EPIA CL is the PCI slot is kept free, and a smaller enclosure can be chosen - our EPIA CL 6000 fits into a wee Cubid 3677 case and runs in near silence.
