Hello,
My airport died, seeing the open source label on this new fangled 3500L netgear device sort of sold me on it :-) (what I need is a simple 8-port switch, with wireless connectivity)
I do wonder if this thing can take the place of my current openbsd router, as I'd kind of like to get rid of that box anyway.
So.. before bricking it.. is there a way to run the software in an emulator, like qemu?
I thought about trying some of these packages out, but it seems sensible to me anyway, to set it up in qemu first.
What I require is:
Ability to do NAT based on source IP.
devel.remote.com:22 --> cvs.example.com:22
* -> honeypot.example.com : 22
DNS (I run a dns server on my router, keeps track of all virtual machines)
NTP (not super critical, but nice)
SSH (So I can ssh in and configure it)
a shell.
tcpdump (So I can examine traffic)
cron (so I can clear logs and possibly schedule access times)
You probably want to look at DD-WRT or OpenWRT.
Those guys have done so much in the way of open source routers - back since the WRT54g / early buffalo routers...
By default the router shows this for routing in Lan Setup *native firmware*:
