Cauldron – a derived from work done at Collaborative Fusion, Inc. with the goal of developing a scalable and manageable enterprise-class BSD-based appliance platform. Much of the work was originally based on Gray Watson ‘s Soekris on OpenBSD Diskless Project . The work was the topic for a paper and associated presentation at EuroBSDCon 2006 and NYCBSDCon 2006.

It allows you to create minimalistic builds of FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD to run certain applications in virtual machines. There is a set of preconfigured environments for creating firewalls, mail servers, DNS servers, NAS storages, wireless access points, intrusion detection systems, spam filters, etc.

The current framework is ideal for bona-fide network appliances: Routers, Firewalls (Policy Routers), Set Top Boxes, Console Servers, RAS Terminal Concentrators, Wireless Access Points (APs), Load Balancers / Application Switches, IDS Sensors, Network Cameras, Environmental Sensors , as well as other heavyweight appliances NAS Storage, Proxy Servers, E-mail SPAM Filters, DNS Slaves.
