Dual core and 2 CPU

[maverick_slo]

Hi guys!

Does pfSense 2.0.1 fully support:

1. Dual core CPUs 2\. Double CPUs (2-4 lets say)

I`ve seen it has SMP kernel but some DOC on wiki confused me a little…

Thanks!

Yes and yes.

Hi!

Thanks, I think it was this one: http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Does_pfSense_support_SMP_%28multi-processor_and/or_core%29_systems%3F

Hmm, seems pretty self explanatory to me (but I already know the explanation!).
In pfSense 1.2.x you had to selext an SMP kernel specifically if you wanted multicore/cpu support.
Since the release of 2.0.x all versions have an SMP kernel. This is because the SMP kernel can now support a single core which previously gave trouble.
