Hi,
I've been happily using many Soekris network appliances for almost 10
years now but Soekris is not in a big hurry to come with a gigabit
platform :(
So I am looking for for a decent network appliance platform to start
replacing Soekris boxes. On my wish list are:
- Can run FreeBSD >= 8.2 (i386 or amd64).
- Models with 4 to 8 (or more) network interfaces, at least 4 gigabit
but all gigabit is better. Preferrably Intel em or igb chips.
- Preferrably a choice of low power CPUs (Intel Atom D510/D525?) and
more powerful CPUs (Core 2/Xeon)
- Bootable from flash or (SATA 2,5") SSD
- 1U rackmount models available but preferrably also small passively
cooled desktop boxes.
- Serial console preferrable over VGA console.
- IPMI would be a plus but not absolutely required.
- Distribution channel in Europe.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Paul Schenkeveld
