So a couple days ago I posted this post about getting slow speeds to my servers at home from basically anywhere. While I am not seeing HA Proxy or anything peg the CPU I figured it’s either my ISP or my Netgate 4100.
So I am now looking for a 1 or 2u firewall that I can have/place 10gig cards in them. I want to stay below $200 if possible. I don’t care if it is massively overkill, I specked this 4100 based on my actual needs and it let me down.
Needs:
10gig
AES-NI support
4 RJ45/SFP+
Rack mountable
Wants:
Ports in front
Quiet (as long as its not louder than my Brocade 6610 we good)
Short case
