      Hello,
      I am new to pfsense, so I need an advice for the hardaware I will need to achieve the following.

      I will have one office with no more than 20 machines in the LAN and 2 different ISP providing me 100 Mb/s connections over fiber optic with media convertors.

      Additionally I have to permanently connect this office with another 2 offices through some VPN, and arrange access for another 10 people that will connect randomly.

      Does SG-4860 have enough power to run the failover between the ISPs and the needed VPN connections. Can I go for the cheaper SG-2440?

      Thanks in advance

        Yes.

        However…

        What sort of bandwidth do you need over the VPNs? What sort of VPN?

        Do you want to run any packages, Snort, Squid etc?

        I would expect the SG-4860 to be capable whatever you were trying to do with 100Mbps max single connection limit though.

        Thanks,
        Steve
