Devil-Linux distro bundles router/firewall and server in one live CD (Linux.com)
Linux.com has a review of
Devil-Linux. "Devil-Linux uses the Linux From Scratch (LFS) build
system, which means you can customize the distribution easily. The latest
version is 1.2.15, which runs on an old kernel 2.4.36.6, but with mostly
updated router, firewall, and server services. Devil-Linux uses the usual
iptables and Netfilter firewalls to create rules and open source services
that can support routing protocols such as Routing Information Protocol
(RIP), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), and Open Shortest Path First
(OSPF). It supports Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) by including the
necessary services, and it features a firewall builder tool to aid in
setting up the firewall policies. For improved security, it also includes
the grsecurity patch to protect the distribution's kernel."
