annoounce::DIFFUSE project comes to FreeBSD
The FreeBSD Foundation is pleased to announce that Swinburne University
of Technology’s Centre for Advanced Internet Architectures (CAIA) has
been awarded a grant to implement DIFFUSE for FreeBSD.
DIFFUSE (Distributed Firewall and Flow-shaper Using Statistical
Evidence) is an extension to the FreeBSD IPFW firewall subsystem
developed by CAIA <http://www.caia.swin.edu.au>. It allows IPFW to classify traffic based on
statistical properties of flows being observed in realtime, and
instantiate network actions across a distributed set of “action nodes”
for particular flows if required.
This project will tidy up and integrate the existing DIFFUSE prototype <http://www.caia.swin.edu.au/urp/diffuse>
into FreeBSD, and incorporate a number of important new
features. Integration of DIFFUSE into FreeBSD will increase FreeBSD’s
utility to designers and implementers of FreeBSD-based networking
infrastructure.

This project began in June 2010 and has been made possible in part by a grant from the Cisco University Research Program Fund at Community Foundation Silicon Valley for a project titled "Exploring the efficacy of distributed statistical traffic classification using modified open source packet filters
Проект DIFFUSE создавал, в том числе, на ГРАНТ исследовательского фонда.
Теперь о лицензии.
The DIFFUSE prototype is an extension of FreeBSD's IPFW packet filter. The prototype is released as open source under the Simplified BSD license.
Че там будут требовать "простые юзеры", не знаю.
