I just wanted to know whether it would be a good idea to run BBB as a
router w/ firewall capability. I intend to use BBB with 1 WAN port and
2 LAN ports(with USB to ethernet dongles) to support a total of 150
users in the network. I am skeptical about the load the BBB can
handle with the above said numbers. Any suggestions?
Wild guess... I would say the USB dongles would be where you hit the
wall. The BBB has more than enough CPU power, RAM might become a factor
with that many users with a lot of rules.
LEAF has an ARM port for Rpi. I don't recall if it's in main or not. I
would think the same hurdles would apply here for that number of users.
Seems to me for the money a Sokeris (sp?) board or something similar
might be more appropriate.
My 2 cents worth anyway.
