Hi,
I got an opportunity today to provide a business with 5 locations with a
VPN solution. My intention is to use pfSense with openVPN, but I'm not
sure of the hardware. Should I go with a Soekris board, or a minibox?
Or got for the cheapest Dell rack mount server?
What kind of Internet throughput and VPN throughput is required?

Throughput will be minimal. From 512Kbps to 2Mbps max. I guess my
biggest concern is stability. I have lab tested the Soekris 4801 with
openVPN to have throughput of up to 3MB/s, so it should be fine for
these locations, but I'm just a little unsure of a 'business critical'
decision and wanted some input.
