phil.davis, it will run but if you at the same time use IPSEC, it will drop dead :(

Oh - I use OpenVPN, no IPsec. I expect Ipsec troubles are not specific to Alix. And it might just be something related to the calculation of subnet max address, which has a nasty bug on 32-bit systems. That bug easily runs the Alix out of memory.

The ALIX hardware does not Work well with v. 2.x

Alix with 256MB memory works very well on 2.2-RELEASE

2.2 is much better on peak memory use than 2.1.n - when events happened on 2.1.n a whole lot of processes could be set off "all at once" and exhaust the 256MB memory. This is all resolved in 2.2 and it has been really good for me.

For a full list, read all of the release notes for every version between 1.2.3 and now. Most of which are linked in the last column here: https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Versions_of_pfSense_and_FreeBSD
