IPNetRouterX for Mac

IPNetRouterX is a powerful router, firewall, and network management utility including NAPT with inbound port mapping, a built-in DHCP Server, AirPort configuration tool, bandwidth allocation, and bandwidth accounting.

Using IPNetRouterX you can share a network connection among multiple users, provide DHCP service, configure an AirPort software base station, allocate network bandwidth to match business priorities, audit network usage, and secure your LAN against undesirable traffic or network abuse. IPNetRouterX includes the complete IP filtering engine from IPNetSentryX, extending its flexibility to the entire LAN. IPNetRouterX supplements and is fully compatible with Apple's own firewall in OSX while providing additional capability to solve network problems users may encounter.

Compared to UNIX natd and ipfw, the standard Internet sharing and firewall included with Mac OS X, IPNetRouterX offers several advantages:

• Excellent performance using in kernel single address space AVL search trees
• IPNetRouterX does not use or depend on ipfw leaving it available for other UNIX software
• Flexible configuration, logging, and notification options
