        How many interfaces?

        Almost anything is going to be at least as fast as an Atom D525.

            Any of our own current devices would probably match that. I think the fastest I saw through one of those was ~600Mbps so the Netgate 2100 would be closest. I'd probably go for a 4100 though to have some scope for WAN upgrades.
            What are you current bandwidth requirements? VPNs? Packages?

              Hello

              I need everything that is anti-intrusion and malware, virus, proxy and openvpn. And more.

              Fast lans, min 3 lans and good memory for all.

              regards

                    Start by looking closely at what Netgate offer and try to correlate that with your requirements. See https://www.netgate.com/pfsense-plus-software/how-to-buy#appliances

                    That is not particularly helpful. You will need to understand your requirements better that that if you want to meaningfully define hardware requirements.

                    Your current system was an Atom D525 with 4GB ram & 4 Nic
                    What was that not doing?

                        Your prior system provides a useful data point on your current firewall requirements both now and over the last 10 years. You can choose to learn nothing from that experience and build on it. Or you can throw that experience away and start again.

                        I know what I would do.

                          A D525 would not have passed 1Gbps even without any packages so pretty much anything is going to be an upgrade.

                          I would want to use a 6100 there of our devices.

                              Yes if you run it 24/7 and have a eye on power consumption and with the 6100 you could go up to 2,5G without any problems.

                              Netgate 6100 & Netgate 2100

                                Hello,

                                I can buy, for cheap an Intel® Quad-Core Processor J3455. It's works fine for vpn, ids/ips with Pfsense ?

                                How much amount of memory you need for this config. Max 10 connexions for openvpn.

                                Regards

                                  You can get by with 4GB , but i always install 8GB

                                  Have you looked at the Netgate 4100 ??
