good open source web based network traffic manager like Kerio for Linux
 

Hello,
I am looking for an open source web based network traffic manager like Kerio(it is for windows) for Linux may be you didn't work with Kerio so I illustrate what I want:
I want to install it on my linux server that I want to use as my internet gateway and
monitor and log all users Internet traffic (not deeply packet and packet header monitoring like wireshark, I just want to see each user or IP, requests for which website or ip).
bandwidth manager for defined users or IPs (do not let to others, those whom did not defined in its database to access to Internet or server) .
NAT manager for IP and PORT mapping activities .
firewall to limit each user or PC(IP) to access or not to access some defined ports or services.
manage each NICs traffic as defined .
manage defined VPN's (kerio has its own VPN ).
be capable to add any feature to it .


Thanks for any help and suggestion.

I was about to give some suggestions, but I recalled seeing a really big list on the internet.

Good luck, I hope you find something to suit your needs.

thanks but would you please give me a suggestion from this long list .
