      Correct!

      Numerical graph shows what is presently taking place.  Not peak as graph shows.  Picture seems to be taken after the test.

            Hello everyone, nothing special here just my home lab.

            2x pfSense Boxes (Black, smaller; 3.4GhzP4, 2GigRAM, 16GigCF, 2x Intel GBit Ether ea.)
            1x Dell 390 - ESXi 5.5 (Silver, QuadXeon2.66, 8GigRAM, 64GigSSD, 1x 2TB7200RPM, 5x GBit Ether) Running OSSIM3, Cent6, and a Log Database
            1x Main Machine (AMD 8150-8Core, 32GigRAM, 2x 256GigSSD, 2x 2TB7200RPM) Running Server2012 and VMWares (~3-5 VMs)
            1x Gateway Laptop (Dualcore 2.6, 4GigRAM, 320Gig7200RPM) Used as vSphere and FW/OSSIM/Network managment machine

            Im not in IT (obviously, my setups not that cool), Im just a second year engineering student with a love for tinkering and networking security.

            Thanks to the pfTeam for a great product. Keep up the good work!

            P.S. - There needs to be a "Donate Beer" button on the website, I dont want to buy a Gold Subscription but I do want to send the guys a few bucks for their favorite beverages. Any suggestions?

              Nice.  :)
              Beats the second hand IBM 386 I had when I was at uni. (I think I later upgraded to blazing fast Cyrix 233!  :P)

              The old website used to have a Paypal link for donating directly small amounts. Also I'm sure there was a list of the Amazon wishlists of various key people. I can't find it now but I always thought that would be a nice way of donating. Unexpected gifts are always good.

                  If I said, "buy pfSense Gold", would you hate me?

                    Tough to hate you just for that Jim.  ;)
                    However I know I didn't have $100 to spare when I was a student. That would have fed me for weeks, including beer! Perhaps a Silver subscription might be in order? I don't envy you deciding what that might entail though.

                        While we are at it, are there any plans of expanding the "subscription program" with other types(/prices)?

                                    Good idea for a thread. We're going to gather pictures from a variety of threads like these in the future and create some kind of micro-site showing off people's deployments. In the mean time, might as well get another thread going.  :)

                                    Here's our primary colocation facility, where this site and most of our others run, as well as the snapshot and release build servers. The firewalls are virtual in ESX, a HA pair with primary on one ESX server and secondary on another.

                                    It should probably be noted that this has changed substantially since Dec '12.  The R510s are still in-use, but we use real hw firewalls now, not VMware, and there is a redundant 10Gbps link running to the office, where the build servers now live.

                                    Will try to post pics soon.

                                      In the meantime, we gave the freebsd foundation two custom-etched APUs to raffle off at BSDcan.

                                      Here's a flickr album from one of the winners.

                                      The other case had a Canadian Mounty themed "Beastie".
