Thread 106563337

What is some off the shelf hardware to run OPNSense for a simple multi vlan setup just to run a couple isolated vlan networks?

Inter-VLAN traffic takes some CPU so home routers might not give much throughput. I had a Mi Router 4A and it gave 200-250 megabits going from VLAN to VLAN. Now I have a mini pc with an i3-10110U and it handles everything very well. You don't need a router with many ports, you can get a cheap smart switch like mine, TL-SG1016DE.

I'm using a repurposed VeloCloud Edge 620 that I snagged off of eBay for just under $40. The specs, in short: Atom C3558 quad-core, 8GB RAM, 128GB M.2 SATA SSD, 6 x 1G copper ports, 2 x 10G SFP+ ports.

There's a whole thread on ServeTheHome about them; this post lays out the procedure for using them with another OS pretty concisely:

You might also want to post this question to >>>/g/hsg/ once there's one back on the catalog.
