I will post power and other numbers here when I get the unit.

Hi looked it up,

this AMD CPU has a thermal design power of 18 W



The Nano AD12 arrived today.  Swapped out the 320GB drive for my 1TB 
drive, plugged it into my kill-a-watt and booted up to do the install.


On idle I am seeing 10W.  So far, disk I/O (plus whatever processes run 
for the install) did not push it past 15W.


So my power goal seems to be met by this unit.

Will see how it goes.

I was fed up with Intel NUC's, and after one of them died ultimately, I
replaced it with:

https://www.amazon.com/Shuttle-DS81-Haswell-chipset-Heatpipe/dp/B00IXFFD4W/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1495117096&sr=8-3&keywords=shuttle+pc

Admittedly, it somewhat bigger, somewhat heavier, but it is built like
tank, it has more than one ethernet port, has room inside for 2.5 inch
drive/SSD, and has two mini-PCI slots (can accept mSATA drives). And I am
happy about that box ever since.

I will post power and other numbers here when I get the unit.

Hi looked it up,

this AMD CPU has a thermal design power of 18 W


The data I have found shows it varying from 10W idle to 26W under load.

Once I get it up, I will put it on my kill-a-watt and get a reading and 
average consumption.


The HP dc7600 pulls 84W idle.  So at $0.165/KWH, I am forecasting a 12mo 
ROI (paid $100 refurbished).


Plus the lower heat and thus summer cooling.

Plus the longer run time on my UPS, if needed.

Re: [CentOS] Mini PCs

Thanks, Nux!.

But a few hours late.  I just purchased:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ZOTAC-ZBOX-NANO-Plus-Mini-PC-ZBOXNANO-AD12-PLUS-2GB-320GB-with-Power-Supply-56/382042194064?_trksid=p2045573.c100033.m2042&_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D41376%26meid%3Deae770f22d504a9b8366eb0c02dd20d6%26pid%3D100033%26rk%3D7%26rkt%3D8%26sd%3D152356229748

Zotac has been in the mini/nano PC business for a number of years, and 
this is a good price for the AD12.


I will probably swap the 320Gb drive out for my 1Tb drive, but as the 
unit comes with eSATA, I have to decide to perhaps get an eSATA adapter 
for the 1TB or what.  My backup drive is USB, but I have had some I/O 
problems with it (my earlier post), so I may switch my backup drive to 
eSATA.


I will post power and other numbers here when I get the unit.

I've configured it quite simple ...

/etc/sysconfig/network_scripts:
ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-wlan0 have this: BRIDGE=br0
ifcfg-br0 is LAN (Dual-Stack)
ifcfg-eth1 is WAN (IPv4only)
ifcfg-sit1 is an HE IPv6 tunnel (IPv6only)

/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf has this:
interface=wlan0
bridge=br0

/etc/sysconfig/ip(6)tables have at the last lines this:

# Log all other
-A INPUT -j LOG --log-prefix "IP(v6)[IN]: " --log-level 7
-A FORWARD -j LOG --log-prefix "IP(v6)[FWD]: " --log-level 7
-A OUTPUT -j LOG --log-prefix "IP(v6)[OUT]: " --log-level 7

there runs a cronjob every hour, which sends an email
like this:
dmesg |grep -e "IP(v6)\[" |timefltr.pl

for DNS a BIND is configured as caching DNS, and as authoritative master for
my domain ...

an Apache is configured only for some status pages like output of
'ifconfig', 'df', 'free', 'ip(6)tables -L -n -v', 'uptime'

I programmed some simple network diagnostic:
- traceroute(6) and ping(6) to a given dns/ip-host
- nslookup of a given dns-name

this is only reachable from LAN side; as I have a VM that runs a squid
with SSL-interception, I made a mini-CA, the root is installed on my
computers,
one intermediate CA is used by squid, the other intermediate CA is used
for signing a SSL certificate which I use on LAN side of my zbox or on my
intranet (e.g. squirrel)

to reach my squirrel, the apache does proxying ...

when there is the need of changing firewall rules, I manually edit the
files and reload ip(6)tables ...

it is somewhat very individual, I'm thinking of sending SMS messages on
special situations, e.g. the WAN IP address has changed (this happens
about 2-3 times in a year)

that's all

That's a good point to check, you're right, support for this CPU in
either CentOS6 or 7.

this zbox has in comparison to the CI323 a different CPU, which I don't
know if this is supported by CentOS
(I didn't mention, that I use CentOS 6 ...)

This might become off-topic with my reply, but I'm curious: is there
any specific software you're running from CentOS on your zbox in order
to manage the rooter features?

I currently use, between my xDSL box and my LAN machines, an ATX-format
box running a pretty old GNU/Linux system with a Jay's Firewall setup
but I'd like to replace it w/ a fanless small barebone like the Zotac
CI327: minimum hardware and cost but it has 2 LAN connectors - that's my
point for rooting at home: WAN <-> xDSL modem <-> rooter-linux-box <->
LAN <-> local machines.

Intel, etal are catching up with ARM and I have seen ones like:

I would take something similar to this:

(for this zbox I can tell you, that it works with CentOS, as I have one 
configured as firewall/router)
