Well, they supply ready-made images for WRAP and Soekris boards as well as
for PCs. These are about 4 MB in size. Perhaps you have the fork pfSense in
mind? This is intended for systems with more power, however they also offer
an "Embedded Edition".
I have to admit that I tried neither of them as I canceled the router
project and my personal router has different requirements.

The configuration manager sounds interesting, a NetBSD-m0n0wall probably
isn't such a valuable project anyway.
Could you elaborate on the idea and mention areas of experience that would
be useful to have?
