          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.

            Steve

                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)?

                            And I subscribed for gold yesterday, just before your post here  ::)

                                  @cmb:

                                  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".
