Hi there,
I was thinking of running a 1.6ghz dual-core machine, 2GB RAM, dual gigabit NICs without TCP offload (onboard sadly) with Untangle or pfsense for firewall duties. Obviously I like the additional functionality of Untangle, but am unsure of what they use for firewall purposes - iptables or what?
Anyway, I was wondering what thoughts are regarding performance of that combination, and suitability of Untangle or pfsense for an enterprise-level environment.
Thanks for any light you may shed ...
