I've just deployed 2 of these for clients: http://www.lannerinc.com/x86_Network_Appliances/x86_Rackmount_Appliances/FW-8758
With 6 nics, E3-1225 V2 proc and 8GB ram they were perfect at $1000/unit. I ran some tests on them and using a single openvpn connection I could push about 200mbps through it. They ship from Canada so it was about 10 days to get them. I should also mention that I believe with LEAF Bering 5 (I'm running 4.3.3 on them now) the AES encryption on the chip should also be available which should increase it's performance for VPNs. I hope this helps, On Sat, 2013-03-30 at 09:47 -0400, Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp. wrote: > > P.S.
