Pfsense Rack Mount Hardware

Hardware crypto accelerators greatly increase maximum vpn throughput and largely eliminate the performance difference between accelerated ciphers.

Pfsense rack mount hardware. Table ipsec throughput by hardware model illustrates the maximum throughput for various hardware available from the pfsense store when using ipsec. 102w 12v 8 5a 100v 240v 50hz 60hz size. Hardware systems with pfsense software. Standard 1u type 100w big power can rack with mounting bracket ears wall hanging foot pad wan lan throughput.

Pfsense 2 3 x is still available but is end of life and not recommended. Sg 2100 security gateway with pfsense software. Greetings apologies ahead of time for the longer post but i would like to provide as much detailed information as possible so that you re able to help me. You can find sweet deals on used corporate hardware if you look for a while.

The following outlines the minimum hardware requirements for pfsense 2 x. Here is the list of the best hardware for pfsense. I have the pfsense running as a vm under esxi and another vm on the machine that runs the unifi controller and some other network utilities. You may be able to get by with less than the minimum but with less memory you may start swapping to disk which will dramatically slow down your system.
