Hi everyone,
Here's what I'm looking at buying, hopefully sometime this year, to replace
my current pfSense box:
https://shop.netgate.com/products/2100-base-pfsense
It's looking at moving the BBS to a small Dell Optiplex 740 (I think) so I
can put my router/firewall, the BBS, and my WAP on a single shelf in as bookcase or something similar. I'm really trying to downsize. The BBS does not get enough traffic to justify running a big server. Besides script
kiddies getting caught in fail2ban, that system doesn't see too much
traffic.
I happen to have a 2.5" 1TB HDD that I could easily put the entire BBS on
and still have toom. I'd also like to get a small NAS of some type to put
on the same shelf with the other equipment and I could use it to serve
files, et cetera.
One of the best things I like about that appliance is I can dump my current config to a XML file, upload it to the appliance, and after making a few
minor changes I'd have a fully configured pfSense appliance.
