Purpose
Our new shiny router. It's an Alix 2D3 low-power computer, with a 4GB Compact Flash card, running stock Debian Squeeze.
Name
Named after Alonzo Church. See also: System naming
Firewall/NAT
Set up very simply to iptables-restore /etc/firewall.conf on networking start. To add a new rule, change /etc/firewall.conf and:
iptables-restore < /etc/firewall.conf
Traffic Shaping
We're using a relatively simple traffic-shaping scheme to manage upload bandwidth. Traffic is tagged using fwmark into one of six priority classes in the "shaper" chain in /etc/firewall.conf.
/etc/network/if-up.d/traffic-shaping then configures the traffic shaping (you shouldn't need to touch this and you should tell Russ if you do).
