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!

    Nice, OP. My pfsense config is large and complex, but I’m currently working on migrating it to OPNsense this week too. I’m glad to not be putting up with Netgate’s crap for much longer. Since I have a few Dell R240s, I’ve even been thinking of doing HA.
