四处寻找相关资料,这里有个评价,其中的一点也是偶的看法,不过官方自己却没有在站点有所说明。 (偶引用某个站点上的话:这的确是让人兴奋的一个软件。)

Tip of the Trade: Lintrack
By Carla Schroder
Lintrack is a small, very well-integrated Linux distribution aimed at small-to-medium wireless Internet service providers. It works just fine for wired network services as well. What, you say, yet another customized networking Linux? What makes this one special? I'm so glad you asked, because this particular Linux distribution is chock-full of special goodies. Here is but a wee sampling of all the neat stuff crammed into Lintrack:
- VLAN support
- Traffic shaping
- IPv4 and IPv6
- Zone-based firewall (就是这点。)
- Static and dynamic routing
- Ethernet bonding
- OpenVPN
- ChilliSpot wireless hotspot
- radius authentication server
Sure, these are all things anyone can download and use, but what makes Lintrack special is its Flatconf integrated configuration utility. This gives hardworking admins a single system-wide, consistent administration interface.
What can you do with Lintrack? It can be deployed as a firewall, VPN gateway, wired or wireless router, content filter, OSPFv2 backbone router, HotSpot gateway, authentication server, HTTP proxy, traffic shaping, time server ... all from a single text configuration interface. Lintrack is free of cost, Free software. It has loads of excellent documentation and user forums. Put the money you save on software licenses into extra-good hardware. You don't have to be an ISP to find many ways to deploy this excellent Linux distribution in your network. |
