pfSense hardware - router appliances for VPN and firewall
pfSense is a firewall distribution based on the FreeBSD operating system and the package filter pf of OpenBSD. pfSense is a free firewall distribution based on the FreeBSD operating system, which was specially developed for use as a firewall and router. It is managed completely via the web interface.
FreeBSD itself is an operating system for a variety of platforms that focuses on functionality, speed and stability.pfSense is very robust, supports numerous functions for router/firewall among other load-balancing & failover. More features Information can be found at: pfsense.org.
Although pfSense can be virtualized like an ordinary operating system, a 'real firewall' should always run on physical hardware, as network performance makes the difference. See below our hardware recommendation for pfSense.
The hardware we offer is tested for compatibility with pfSense, as shown below. The table below shows the throughput values with associated CPU and network adapters measured after the default installation.
pfSense can be installed on any compatible hardware, if desired we will install the software before the delivery. We optionally install pfSense, OPNsense, IPfire, ClearOS, RouterOS in addition to pfSense.
The hardware is mostly compatible with other Linux and FreeBSD operating systems like: Endian, Smoothwall, IPcop, CentOS, Sophos, Untangle, Ubuntu, Debian, openSuse, Red Hat, Fedora and more.
By default firewall hardware is available as mini desktop aluminium case and rack version 19 inch 1U, see pictures.
Before you order the hardware, you can configure it with more: RAM, CPU, hard disks, network adapters etc. For your questions, for an individual PDF offer write us.
