m0n0wall 计划的目标是创建一份完整的、内置的防火墙软件包，当它配合PC使用时，能够提供商用防火墙机器的所有重要功能（连同易用性在内），而其价钱却只是后者的 一小部分（因为m0n0wall是自由软件）。m0n0wall基于FreeBSD的一个精简版本，并带有一个web服务器（thttpd）、PHP以及 其他一些实用工具。整套系统配置存储于单个的XML文本文件以对系统透明。m0n0wall很可能是首个拥有用PHP实现的启动配置的UNIX系统，而通 常这是依靠shell脚本的，此外，它把整个系统配置都用XML格式存储。
The fourth beta release of m0n0wall, a FreeBSD-based firewall, was announced earlier today. From the changelog: "captive portal voucher fixes: idle timeout, allow voucher authentication starting with &apos-'; console speed for WRAP image is now 38400 as this has always been the default for new WRAP (and ALIX) boards anyway; modified WRAP image kernel to also work with ALIX.2 (added vr device and USB EHCI + CPU soft reset patches to wrap kernel); patched hostapd to support writing PID file (fixes problem with wireless interfaces that have WPA enabled not being initialized properly on boot); recompiled MPD with current MSS / dial-on-demand patches (also fixes idle timeout bug); removed code that auto-selects subnet mask on LAN and OPT setup pages; recompiled PHP, this time with radius extension...."
