Architecture
The NuFace project is made of a frontend, written in PHP, and a backend, named nupyf , written in Python. The frontend's job is to generate a XML file. That XML file describes network and authentication objects, as well as ACLs designed by the administrator. The backend, in turn, converts that XML data into system commands and scripts, in order to apply the filtering rules. The backend can, of course, receive commands from the web interface. In fact, a complete NuFace installation requires no console administration to modify/reload firewall rules.
The tarballs include both the frontend and the backend.
