Devil-Linux is a Linux distribution for use as a router/firewall which boots and runs completely from CD-ROM. Devil-Linux is capable of running on an older PC. This, combined with a hub or switch is a solution some Linux users may prefer instead of using a dedicated router.^{[citation needed]}

Devil-Linux does not provide a graphical interface, making it a very light-weight distribution. Nevertheless, it includes a wide range of services (E.g.: DNS, Web, FTP, SMTP, ...), tools (MySQL, Lynx, Wget, ...) and security utilities (OpenVPN, Shorewall, ...) ensuring a high level of flexibility. Saving the configuration to a (later write protected) floppy disk, the settings can be restored at boot. Without using writable media, Devil-Linux is extremely secure from outside attacks.^{[citation needed]}

Devil-Linux uses a Linux from Scratch (LFS) build system that allows the user to create customized versions of this distribution.^{[clarification needed]}

It uses the grsecurity kernel-patch.
