Which Hardware should I use ?

Hello, 

iam sorry for asking, but every thread i have read was not up date. 

 

So I would like to ask if someone can recommend some low power consuption Hardware for a Sophos XG firewall. 

 

What are the requirement to the firewall? 

- Up to 6 Users surfing 

- Web filtering

- Email (IMAP / SMTP) filtering 

- establish a ppoe Connection ( 100 / 40 Mbit) 

- VPN ( Clients to Server - up to 2 Users at the same time)

- VPN ( Side to Side - one connection)

- VLANS

 

Thanks for helping 

Mario

  • Hi at all,

    Same question here - Think I got a nice deal of by Amazon for Home use.

    HUNSN Firewall, Mikrotik, VPN, Network Security Appliance,Router PC,Intel Quad Core J1900,(Gray), RS17,[4 Intel Gigabit LAN/2USB/1VGA/Fanless/2 Reserved Fan],(4G RAM/32G SSD)

    Since the limitations for home use are 4 cores and 6 GB Ram - I would like to ask how much throughput the appliance will have with the current XG Firmware.

    I have a 1Gbit Internet Connection DS-Lite.

    1 PC

    1 PS4

    1 Smart TV

    1 Android TV (NVIDIA Shield)

    1 Pi-Hole DNS

    Sincerely

    Eli.

  • Hi,

    for that small number of network devices it will work, but you will not hit 1gb/s download. The CPU speed is the limiting factor.
