Known working hardware configurations
Please add your hardware configurations here if you are successfully using pfSense.
A short sentence describing what capabilities your hardware has and any special functions would also be useful.
- Soekris Net4801. 266Mhz AMD Geode CPU, 128MB RAM, 2 NatSemi DP8381[56] 10/100BaseTX NICs, Wireless 400mW 802.11a/b/g Atheros 5212 MiniPCI. SanDisk SDCFB-512 HDX 3.15. Embedded pfSense 1.0.1.
- 200 MHz AMD K6, 256 MB RAM, 2 generic Realtek chipset NICs, 20 GB generic harddisk. Serves well as a router/firewall. Can also handle at least one VPN connection.
- SE440BX Pentium 3 - 550. 384 MB RAM. 2 Intel pci nics. 8 gb hd. Pushes over 45 megabit a sec.
- Nexcom 1030 - Intel nics - Saturates 100 megabit link
- Nexcom 1041c - Intel nics - works with embedded versiona nd full install
- PC-Engines wrap, 128 meg version
- PR440FX - Dual Proc 200 mhz pentium pro, 256 MB ram, Intel nics
- linITX FX5620 - 6 port platfrom (1 of them GBit/s), C3 1GHz
- Intrusion PDS-5115 : CeleronII 600, 128Mb ram, Sparrow mainboard - both hd and cf setups working - only issue : inverted nic's order ( remember to set "-h" @boottime).
- IBM Netvista 8364 S20: Pentium1 233Mhz, 192 MB Ram, 2 x Intel Pro 100, 128 MB CF Card, pfsense embedded install: works perfect on a 6 MBit/s DSL Line
- AMD K6-2 500MHz, 128MB RAM, 3.2GB HDD. Working great so far, despite the warning that "127MB" (sic) is not the optimum amount of memory. Memory usage staying at 46% when configured as a standard firewall.
- VMWare encapsulated with 4 gig virtual HDD, 256 dedicated RAM, 2 dedicated physical NICs (not using main NIC used by host OS). Machine itself is a dual 550MHz IBM Netfinity 5000 with 1 gig RAM running Windows 2003 Server. Firewall used for home 16mbit cable connection and can handle anything thrown at it. Snapshots in VMWare make rolling back from an error really easy.
- Intel Pentium 4 EMT64 3 GHz, Supermicro P8SCi board, 2GB DDR2 533, Intel Pro/1000 MT Quad Gigabit, 80GB SATA; All 6 gigabit interfaces active. Will have performance numbers once it becomes the default route.
- Intel Celeron D 2.66GHz, 512MB DDR2 667, MSI 945GM3-F MB, Intel 10/100/1000Mbps PCI-X MT Dual Port Server Adapter,
- VIA EPIA-5000 miniITX Platform - CPU: VIA C3/Eden 533 MHz (passive cooled); Chipset: VIA PLE133; RAM: 256MB; Onboard NIC: VIA Rhine 10/100; Additional NIC: D-Link DFE-570TX (21143, MII, quad port 10/100); Installed on HDD; 1U 19" router/firewall
- miniITX VIA C3 Nehemia 1 GHz
- VIA C3M266 microATX Platform - CPU: VIA 1 GHz (active cooled); Chipset: VIA Apollo CLE266; RAM: 768MB; Onboard NIC: VIA Rhine 10/100; Additional NIC: D-Link DFE-570TX (21143, MII, quad port 10/100); Installed on HDD; 1U 19" router/firewall
- VIA PC-2500 microATX Platform- CPU: VIA C7 1,6 GHz (active cooled); Chipset: VIA CN700 Digital Media IGP Chipset/VIA VT8237R Plus; RAM: 1024MB; Onboard NIC: VIA Rhine 10/100; Additional NIC: D-Link DFE-570TX (21143, MII, quad port 10/100); Installed on HDD; 1U 19" router/firewall
- IBM T60 with 80GB SATA, 1GB RAM, Intel Pro/1000 running Windows XP - pfSense on VMware server virtual machine 2GB VirtualHDD/256MB 2 NIC one linked to Intel one Virtual.
- Tyan S5112G2NR motherboard with 3.0 ghz pentium IV processor and 2 on-board Intel Gigabit NIC's, 1 Gigabyte of unregistered unbuffered ECC RAM, 1 40 Gigabyte PATA Western Digital Hard Drive, 1 Intel 32 Bit Workstation Gigabit NIC, 2 Intel 64 Bit PCI-X 2 Port Server Gigabit NIC's, 1 Soekris VPN1401 Crypto Accelerator Card
- Cisco Content Engine CE-507. PIII 600Mhz ,256MB ram, 2x Intel NICS, 18GB Scsi drive on Symbios controller.
- 1.2 RC3 w/P200MMX w/256 SDRAM, 3 x vr interfaces (dlink dfe-580tx PCI), 2 x ed interfaces (old hp ISA cards). Snort installed (not active atm), 47% memory usage. OpenVPN for single remote user, 64kbps/32kbps. Works Perfectly.
