Hello,
Is anybody running pfSense on an alix1c, alix1d or alix3c3 ? (the types
with 1 NIC and VGA/USB)
I've been using pfSense on these types of alix boards for a while now,
in setups with VLANs on the onboard NIC or a wireless card in the mpci
slot as a second NIC.

Please forgive my noob questions...
I've added a 2nd WAN interface called CABLEWAN to my pfSense

So, I'm trying to get a pfsense box in the shop because I've enjoyed

Since I've never worked extensively with Cisco, can someone give me a few
salient points to throw at him. I already used the cost argument, he wants
more.
The support for PFSense is top notch. Between the mailing
1) Cost is the biggest advantage.
2) Open Source is also huge, if Cisco goes bankrupt I'm out of luck for
support, If pfsense stops, i just need the source code and some
knowledge of how it works and i can support pfsense forever.
3) pfSense can be customized to the nth degree. Good luck trying
Start with cost. There is no cost per seat with pfsense. You don't

The office just sent me to Cisco IPS training. Cisco ASA's have
(linux) hardware modules that you can add for IPS -- basically the
same thing that Snort does, but for additional cost, licensing, and
maintenance on top of the equipment you already bought. Snort
signature updates are cheap compared
*1.2.3-RC3, nanobsd on a Netgate Alix board with 256 MB RAM and a 8GB CF
card. The firmware and all have been updated.
Have been playing around with this box as a firewall for the last couple of
weeks. Then I did the unthinkable and ventured out of my comfort shell.
