Building the Network You Need with PF, the OpenBSD
packet filter.
Building the network you need is the central theme
for any network admin. This tutorial is for aspiring
or seasoned network professionals with at least a
basic knowledge of networking in general and TCP/IP
particular. The session aims at teaching tools and
techniques to make sure you build your network to
work the way it's supposed to, keeping you in charge.
Central to the toolbox is the OpenBSD PF packet
filter, supplemented with tools that interact with
it. Whether you are a greybeard looking for ways
to optimize your setups or a greenhorn just starting
out, this session will give you valuable insight
into the inner life of your network and provide
pointers to how to use that knowledge to build the
network you need. The session will also offer some
fresh information on changes introduced in OpenBSD
4.5, the most recent version of PF and OpenBSD. The
tutorial is loosely based on Hansteen's recent book,
/The Book of PF/ (No Starch Press), with updates
and adaptations based on developments since the
book's publication date.

Networking from the Bottom Up: Device Drivers.
In this tutorial I will describe how to write and
maintain network drivers in FreeBSD and use the
example of the Intel Gigabit Ethernet driver (igb)
throughout the course.
Students will learn the basic data structures and
APIs necessary to implement a network driver in
FreeBSD. The tutorial is general enough that it can
be applied to other BSDs, and likely to other
embedded and UNIX like systems while being specific
enough that given a device and a manual the student
should be able to develop a working driver on their
own. This is the first of a series of lectures on
network that I am developing over the next year or
so.

pfSense Tutorial
From Zero to Hero with pfSense
pfSense is a free, open source customized distribution
of FreeBSD tailored for use as a firewall and router.
In addition to being a powerful, flexible firewalling
and routing platform, it includes a long list of
related features and a package system allowing
further expandability without adding bloat and
potential security vulnerabilities to the base
distribution. pfSense is a popular project with
more than 1 million downloads since its inception,
and proven in countless installations ranging from
small home networks protecting a PC and an Xbox to
large corporations, universities and other organizations
protecting thousands of network devices.
This tutorial is being presented by the founders
of the pfSense project, Chris Buechler and Scott
Ullrich.
The session will start with an introduction to the
project, hardware sizing and selection, installation,
firewalling concepts and basic configuration, and
continue to cover all the most popular features of
the system. Common usage scenarios, deployment
considerations, step by step configuration guidance,
and best practices will be covered for each feature.
Most configurations will be demonstrated in a live
lab environment.
Attendees are assumed to have basic knowledge of
TCP/IP and firewalling concepts, however no in-depth
knowledge in these areas or prior knowledge of
pfSense or FreeBSD is necessary.
