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!

I’ve made a tool that can convert your pfsense configuration to an opnsense configuration. It’s not perfect, but it can do a majority of the legwork for you.
You can pull the site via docker:
docker run --name pf2opn -p 4200:80 -d mwood77/pf2opn
Or use it on the web here:
- https://www.pf2opn.com/
- The conversion happens 100% on your machine; there are no network requests / cookies / or any kind of tracking on the site.
As always, please try the converted configuration in a test image before you apply it to a production environment. If you find any bugs, please reach out.
