If you can provide what all homework you completed and where you stuck up, we should be able to input our comments. As of now, your questions scope is too vast

Untangle is another open source model that I can refer. It is really good, easy to use and rich in features. Yes, for few of the advanced modules you may need to pay or do your customization on your own, but in general it is a good model to review for your firewall-engineering.
