UTM 9 + 1 Gb Fiber + Atom C2750

Hi everyone,

i new member !

 

I need advice because I can not find an answer.

 

I think build UTM for home with mother board Intel Atom C2750 8C  / 8 Gb RAM and 2x i210 intel NIC.

UTM 9 with firewall rules / IPS / Filters / antivirus and maybe VPN (juste for me).

My internet speed is DL 1 Gb/s UP 300 Mbs.

 

The C2750 is it powerful enough or take other cpu ?

 

Best Regard,

  • Hi

    thank you for asking. For IPS WilliamW recommends a very fast CPU, you don't need processing power because the UTM/XG are not performing serious calculations etc.

    So I built one using a i3-6100 which runs about 3.8ghz or something similar. I could never test the performance though, my internet runs at 5.5/1 on a good day.

    Also depends on whether you want low power or high throughput, seeing you have a high speed connection I expect high throughput wins. My box runs about 30-35w, yours will run higher because of your internet speed.
