      Hello,
      i want install pfsense on following dedicated server for using its IPS(Snort)
      E3-1240v6
      32GB DDR4 2400Mhz
      2x ssd 240gb intel dcs 3510
      HP P222 Smart Array 6G SAS/ 3G SATA
      1 x Intel TenGigabit X520-DA2 Server (Intel 82599 ES chipset) Adapter, 2 x SFP+ ports

      then i want put this server in front (before) my mikrotik and i want using its 10GB uplinks so how much active connections or throughput can i have on this server?
      i see its close to XG-1537,

      so can any one guide me about throughput of this server when i using only the IPS feature?

      and how many firewall rules can i have on this server without reducing performance?

      THanks
