Hi all

I am trying to replace the ASG220 with a totally free solution. Have
looked at a few distros, namely ipcop, endian, monowall, but can't
come to a conclusion. Should I just build everything from scratch or
just look at a cisco solution?

Current using ASG220 as firewall/7 port router/VPN server/NAT/NTP/DNS
Forwarder/Policy Routing/DHCP. I have 3 WAN links, 1 DMZ and 3
Internal Networks.

Any recommendation?

Probably any of the above would work, just take a little time to
configure a more complex than usual setup.

Except the "totally free" part.

And what in your opinion isn't free ? It's GPL2, an optional subscriptor
for payd support doesn't make it less free.
