Maximum supported WAN links on PfSense
-
Hi ,
How many WAN links i can use on Pfsense? i am having 18 WAN links with 1 Gbps each. can i configure load balance and failover with all the WAN links?
i have 16000 IPs required for my LAN network. i am expecting more than 12000 Devices to connect to my network. due to site limitation i can only keep one PfSense. i am going to deploy it in Esxi and use 64 GB RAM.
is it enough to balance all the load. how many stats i can expect for 16000 User devices.
please help me here. -
@indiankid I would not deploy anything like this in ESXi. For me at least, it adds unnecessary complexity and won't run as smoothly as it will on bare metal.

@robh-0 Hi , but i dont have another option. i have a server with 256 GB ram and i will use 128 GB for Pfsense and other for creating more virtual machns.
i have similar setup on esxi with 8GB ram and 2 ISP links with morethan 400-600 users connection and i never faced any issues.
