Install PfSense 2.0 on Sonicwall TZ180 or NSA 3500?
-
I am curious if anybody had any luck installing PfSense on the Sonicwall TZ180 device? It's a solid piece of hardware just wanted to get rid of their crappy firmware.
I'd imagine the NSA 3500 would be easier since it's almost like WatchGuard's.

The TZ-180 appears to use a MIPS processor so no luck there. :(
See: http://forum.m0n0.ch/index.php?topic=5016.0The nsa 3500 appears too new and expensive for anyone to have tried opening it yet!

Thanks for the heads up. Figured the TZ-180 is a no go which is a shame for a solid piece of hardware.
As for the NSA 3500 it's got a removable CF card so I can load PfSense 2.0 on it. Yeah I know what you mean it being too new but it was a competitive upgrade for the WatchGuard so it's defunt now. Figured I'd try to turn it into a standby firewall for the WatchGuard.
Will let you know how it goes with the NSA.

I think the NSA 3500 use also a MIPS CPU (IMHO a quad MIPS?!)
