RE: Looking for *cheap* embedded platform w- 2 ethernets

http://www.mikrotik.com/ , That's the software they normally use on these
boards, linux based with client software to configure it, very easy and
EXTREMELY easy to do full VPN client/server, full OSPF/RIP/BGP, well pretty
much anything network related.

I agree on the gigabit statement although interface bonding will have to do
for now.

Those are really, *really* nice.  It's about time such vendors started
using gigE PHY/NICs; it's the main reason why I don't invest in devices
like these.  The RB/1000 is quite awesome.

You'll probably have to define what "cheap" means to you. I don't have 
much experience with small / embedded equipment but this product: 
http://www.fit-pc.com/new/specifications.html works for me ($300).

Take a look at the sokeris pcb's. I have had good luck making embedded routers 
out of them.

Looking for *cheap* embedded platform w- 2 ethernets

2008-06-20 Thread joe mcguckin
I'm looking for a cheap and small embedded platform to use as a  
portable vpn endpoint. It doesn't have to be fast, it just has to

run *BSD.

Any suggestions??

Thanks,
