About:
ferm is a tool to maintain and setup complicated firewall rules. It allows
one to reduce the tedious task of carefully inserting rules and chains,
thus enabling the firewall administrator to spend more time on developing
good rules, and less time on the proper implementation of those rules.
These rules will be executed by the preferred kernel interface, such as
ipchains and iptables, and in one pass. Firewall rules can also be split
into different files and loaded at will.

Changes:
This release supports IPv6, raw tables, and many of the new netfilter
modules. Syntax checks are stricter. User-defined functions may be used.
The ability to include files was added. Support for ipchains and ipfwadm
was removed. The new "fast" mode uses iptables-restore. A rollback is
performed on error.
