1.2. What is eBox?

eBox is a framework which has network services and a management application, for these services, through a web interface. Some of them are: firewall, file sharing, proxy-cache, content filter, mail server, NTP server, DHCP server, printer server, Jabber server and network objects management.

eBox has a modular design, so it's possible its installation without all the available modules described on this guide. Anyway, you can check the information about the modules you don't own and inquire if they are useful for you, necessary or have an important real value for your current eBox platform.
