Re: [Soekris] Hardware recommendations
Hi Mario, you might consider the modular approach: Soekris net for routing/firewall and VPN, and one or two bigger boxes for the rest. Maintaining two or more boxes in different roles tends to be a lot less stressful than having to maintain a single one in a multi-role config. You'll have to dig deep for any benchmarks, but in a gateway role a Soekris net5501 should do pretty well in most cases.

Nothing Soekris sells at the moment comes close, except in Ethernet port count. > I think i have seen such a 19" Soekris Box on the Linux days 2007. Can IIRC, it's merely a 19" rack-mount box for their current products. > anyone point me to some products?! I'd look at mini-itx solutions, or even a full-size 1U solution http://www.mini-box.com/site/index.html http://www.logicsupply.com/ not sure what shipping to DE would be like from these companies, but I'm sure you can find something reasonable, or local. > We primarily need it for Proxy, Mailserver, VPN and Netfilter. Wow, if you're doing all that on one box, you probably *do* want to look at full-size (15" deep) solutions, depending on the size of your user base. -Andy ___ Soekris-tech mailing list Soekris-tech@lists.soekris.com http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech

[Soekris] Hardware recommendations
Hello List, we are currently looking for some powerfull Hardware. It must have: - Intel Pentium Mobile (>= 1,6GHz) - 2,5" Hard Disk (Slot) - Min 1GB Ram - Min 3 Interfaces - VGA is optional I think i have seen such a 19" Soekris Box on the Linux days 2007. Can anyone point me to some products?! We primarily need it for Proxy, Mailserver, VPN and Netfilter.
