After having issues with my Netgate 4100 (see this post) and knowing all the crap Netgate has pulled the last few years, I decided to build a new Firewall capable of 10 gig routing. Hopefully this fixes my issues. If not at least I no longer have to support PFsense.

Hardware:

X11SSH-F Motherboard

Xeon E3-1240 v5 CPU

32GB 2400mghz RAM

ZFS Mirrored 128gb SSDs

350W Gold Rated PSU

Connect X3 Dual SFP+ NIC

​

Should have it production ready by next week. Really not looking forward to reconfiguring all the HAProxy/ VPN stuff, but so far already found quite a few Aliases/Rules I can cleanup.

Thanks for stopping by!
