FreeBSD 10.0 on Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite The Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite is a neat little device that costs less than US$100, has three Ethernet ports, and can run FreeBSD/mips. It's based on the Cavium Octeon CN5020 platform and features a dual core 500mhz MIPS64 processor, 512MB RAM, and 4GB storage on removable USB. The EdgeRouter Lite in the foreground, near a Netgear WNDR3700 and a bulky ISP-provided cablemodem. This page provides ready-to-use images of FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE. Thanks to the open nature of the EdgeRouter Lite, it's very easy to install and use these images; just follow the instructions below. Thanks to the fine folks at the FreeBSD Project, building your own is almost as easy. A script to build them, along with instructions, is also provided. Special thanks is due to Juli Mallett and Warner Losh, without whose hard work and generous assistance none of this would be possible. Note that this is experimental software which comes with no warranty of any kind. These builds are works in progress and are not fit or suitable for any purpose whatsoever. By proceeding you assume all risks. On my EdgeRouter Lite, the builds provided below are stable and pretty much fully functional. There are two outstanding issues: Performance could be a little better, though it's more than adequate for my home Internet connection. Basic packet passing between two Gigabit hosts seems to top out at about 250Mbits/sec. There is currently no way to pass boot options (such as single-user mode) to the kernel from U-Boot. Hardware crypto acceleration via /dev/crypto seems to work. Use AES in CBC mode to see a huge speedup over CTR. etc. _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
