Pfsense 2.0 on HyperV R2
-
Hello,
We have a production Dell T 610 running HyperV R2 role in Window 2008 R2 Server.
We are planning to install pfsense as Vm in this server.
Since I havent see many thread regarding HyperV, I wider if there are any specific details that we should consider.Best regards

If i remember right there were problem with hyperV drivers.

Thank you for your answer!
So, should I stop consider about pfsense in HyperV? Shame, if so, because we have this new machine.
I need to run packages (IPS, Squid, AV, Antispam), so my Alix is not an option, I think.
Should I consider run it in a Esxi host?
Best regards
Kostas

either esxi or virtualbox should be fine

Been running 2.0 on HyperV R2 for months.
What driver issues??

Cant remember thoroughly, but there was some problems with certain hardware with hyperv, there might be also bounty on that

The most common problem that I have rasd about, is the nic speed in HyperV. Even though I will not use pfsense for routing networks, just Internet traffic (WANs), I ave read that the bigger speed that legacy adapters used on HyperV is 22mb/s.
