pfSense is a software distribution used to create a network gateway from an x86 server. It was originally created in 2004 from a fork of m0n0wall by Chris Buechler and Scott Ullrich.
Very commonly used in SMEs and other small organisations, pfSense offers a complete routing, filtering, VPN and connection sharing solution. It is based on PF and incorporates a large number of third party components: DHCP/DNS server, time server, web proxy, monitoring, and more. Configuration is done exclusively via a web interface.
pfSense is available under the BSD License. Official support is provided by BSD Perimeter.

“ pfSense est un des rares à intégrer d'emblée IPv6. Il n'est pas très "sexy" mais l'environnement de gestion est clair et on s'y retrouve assez facilement. J'ai essayé le portail captif : il gagnerait à intégrer des fonctions de "personnalisation", mais c'est probablement lié à une faiblesse de la documentation sur ce point... ”

“ lorsque on parle de PfSense, on peut le représenter comme une plateforme riche de sécurité. il est caractérisé par une large bibliothèque de package avec une intégration facile. PfSense est ,à la fois, un firewall, proxy, VPN, Routeur, DNS, DHCP, Snort..... Tout simplement, c'est un redoutable outil. ”
