Free software replacement for Microsoft ISA
 
We're looking at moving away from ISA and to Threat Management Gateway (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microso...eway_.28TMG.29), does anyone know of a free software replacement that:

Has a nice GUI that allows us to see what's going on in real time e.g. who has VPN sessions, how long they've been connected, etc.

Is compatible with or has a tool that can convert our ISA firewall config - recreating all those rules from scratch in a new system would be difficult, time consuming and would probably break a lot of things.

Has good logging and alerts

Plays nicely with Active Directory

IMHO, if you're moving away from ISA, it's a bad idea to (re-)use those same firewall rules.
As far as I know there doesn't exist something to convert your ISA config in a sane way (making it both usable and optimal for your new setup).

As for replacements, it mostly depends on your needs.
Pfsense is one of the many popular ones:
