VK-T40E VPN throughput?
-
Hi there,
Does anyone have numbers as to what the VPN throughput for IPSEC, PPTP and OpenVPN is?
I need to achieve 40 megabit symmetricfor ALL of the above (well, PPTP is a bit less important). I estimate no more than 5 simultaneous users. Will this box cut it?
Kind regards,

I don't have an answer but do you need 40Mbit/sec total or per user.

why not build a system instead?

Is is 40 megabit in total. For full disclosue, I'm now using a Mikrotik routerboard 850Gx2 which I thought had HW acceleration but this appears not the be the case now. Their Cloud Core routers are too big and loud for where I'm going to put them.
I'm looking for a compact form factor. One thing that has has recently caught my eye is:
http://soekris.com/products/net6801.html
=>• Intel QuickAssist Integrated Accelerator, up to 10Gbit/sec
But that product is not yet available, unfortunately.

QuickAssist doesn't do anything without OS & application support and that doesn't exist in pfSense yet.
Beyond that, skip Soekris. If you want a similar board then go look at the SuperMicro Atom boards or wait a few months for a new batch from NetGate.

4-core - http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Atom/X10/A1SRi-2558F.cfmThere are a decent number of us here using the 8-core version and it's the same board NetGate uses in their Rangeley 1U system.
