That's good to know. Can it reliably tag and limit torrent traffic? I've been looking at methods to do that in Mikrotik and a lot of the mangle rule examples I see online don't actually work (anymore?) and the ones that do work seem too broad for comfort. I don't know if it's a $17,000 problem, but it's a problem I keep getting asked about. ------ Original Message ------ From: "Simon Westlake" <simon@sonar.software<mailto:simon@sonar.software>> To: af@afmug.com<mailto:af@afmug.com> Sent: 10/6/2016 12:48:55 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Procera costs Yes, but most of the time it isn't worth it. You end up paying list on most of the licensing, and they won't support the hardware if it fails. They EOL the hardware every 5 years or so as well (it's still supported for a while afterwards, but that's the typical cycle,) so you generally want to be buying a newer chassis. Sometimes it's worth buying a used one, especially if it's a bigger chassis, but it generally doesn't make sense.

Basically, if I bought Gino's unit, I would have to pay him and he would pay Barracuda.
