[pfSense] Recomend

2014-11-27 Thread Brian Caouette
I've been looking at the kit at Netgate for $199 to replace my poweredge 2850 
for pfSense. My concern is the sd/flash memory and the use of squid primarily 
for content filtering but also limited caching. My understanding is the SSD or 
SD card will have its life limited by the extensive r/w. Can anyone with 
experience with the 2850 and this device comment as to how it will compare 
beyond the obviously smaller sizer and lower power consumption. Is there 
anything I should know consider?

I'd be a little worried about the SD card and squid, but not the current
ADD solution from Netgate.

[pfSense] Use 2.0.3 config on 2.1.5, does it work ?

2014-11-27 Thread Nenhum_de_Nos

Hail,

I am about to change a firewall hardware, and I see the possibility to 
update the pfSense version as well.


Is it safe to do it out-of-the-box ?

thanks,

matheus

Have you considered a small 2.5” SATA HD for the machine? If you’re talking 
APU, of course. You can run it off 5V from the board (I THINK?) I know there 
are SATA headers there.
