Hi all, I'm going to create a firewall with openBSD, and would like to use the ARM64 or ARMv7 distribution for that. Unfortunately I don't know what hardware I can get for this, and that's the reason for this mail. Can someone point me to a suitable platform for this? If this email does not belong on this mailing list, I offer my apology. This is my first post on this mailing list, and ask for understanding. Sincerely, Karel.
Fortunately, since there's only one speed connection, a set number of devices doing a fixed number of things in each location, we will have no problem advising you on the best choice for your application... oh, wait... :) Well, here's the HW compatibility for those platforms: https://www.openbsd.org/arm64.html https://www.openbsd.org/armv7.html You will have to decide what fits your needs. Honestly, though, I'd suggest just recycling an old PC and a surplus network card (or multi-port card, depending on how people toss stuff out around you). If you want "the best choice", this is probably it. Nick.
