New pfsense installation. What version
-
Hi,
I was using pfsense 1.2.3 for a long time but due redundancy I was forced to look further then pfsense 1.2.3.
I need rundancy with just 1 public ip adress. So iwent for the juniper srx210 but they have a lot of flaws:-
No logging!
-
Hard to configure
-
Cost a lot and even more to keep up 2 date
Is pfsense 2.0 stable enough to run in small company environment (+-50 users).
I would of course buy commercial support with the money that I save from juniper! -
-
You still need three public IPs for proper failover on pfSense 2.0.
At this point I'd say it's fairly stable. There are a few bugs left, but without knowing more about exactly what you're using it's hard to say if it would be good.
I would load it up on a test/lab system, try it out, and see if it's stable under the kind of load/usage you expect.

In 2.0 you still need 3 public ip's. So 1.2.3 has the same carp abilities as 2.0?
-
Correct, the behavior of CARP failover has not changed in that regard between 1.2.x and 2.0
