Quite a few have done similar, many of which we've converted for them. Same end result as what you have at your smaller site, bigger scale is no issue. It can be time consuming to do the conversions, but for most customers we can do it in a fraction of the time, and do it with a much higher degree of accuracy, than they can do themselves just because they haven't done numerous conversions and don't live and breath firewalls like we do. I suspect you're probably in a similar position to those we work with at several school districts that are existing customers of ours, where you're responsible for a wide range of things and have way too much to do already. The firewall conversion is something we could take off your hands. Feel free to get in touch at <sales at pfsense.org> with some specifics on the systems you're looking to replace, and we can discuss options on how we can help. _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
