    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">pfsense is designed around a web
      interface its not grafted on afterwards so it works quite well in
      practise.<br>
      There is still a cli to do basic things with, assign interfaces
      etc and you can get a shell and do anything you can do in BSD but
      you aren't going to be setting it up there.<br>
      <br>
      The issue with pfsense at this moment in terms of packet passing
      performance to my understanding is PF is single CPU only, pfsense
      2.2 which is currently being developed is based on freebsd 10
      which does support SMP for PF. I'm having difficulty finding any
      pfsense specific stats for max throughput but this guy
      <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=26244.0">https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=26244.0</a> winds up with
      2gbit on a sensible machine with not much in the way of load for a
      single stream.<br>
      <br>
      It's not going to compare with a big cisco but then the price
      doesn't compare either ;-><br>

                the site has a backup and it is non essential.  They are

                network that needs 4 9's   Perhaps we are at 99.9 now. 
                Then again if I had to run on a tight budget and I had

                      is correct, the Tilera CPU with RouterOS does

                      than just BGP operating on a single core, all
                      routing (OSPF, RIP and static) processing will
                      happen on the same core. ROS7 is likely to change

                                    <br>
                                    <br>
                                    So I have tested routerOS ... in VM
                                    and also bought the ccr1036.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    I'm not 100% happy with the ccr1036.
                                     Basically can't push 1 tcp stream
                                    past 1Gb/s I can get 8-9Gb/s with
                                    multiple streams. I can get UDP up
                                    to 9.8Gb/s<br>
                                    <br>
                                    I like routerOS interface (have to
                                    admit I like the vyatta better from
                                    what I saw).<br>
                                    <br>
                                    But now I need to find something
                                    similar to these devices around the
                                    same price and around the same
                                    performance, I would like to push it
                                    all to a VM but Brocade want my 1st
                                    and 2nd child ...<br>
                                    <br>
                                    So routerOS support is nowhere close
                                    to Cisco and rightly so for the
                                    price, so I have some hesitancy in
                                    rolling these things out, especially
                                    if they are going into the core.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    So are there any suggestions from
                                    the list ?<br>
                                    <br>
