Hello.
I need a low power pfSense firewall on a gigabit wan and most likely running extra packages like snort/suricata, pfblocker-ng, ntopng.
Are there any benchmarks comparing more models from the Denverton/Rangeley/Avoton families, besides this one? The STH slide shows Denverton having twice-ish the aes-128-gcm performance over Rangely.
Since the Denverton nics are not yet supported outside the official XG-7100, the C2750 looks like the best candidate as the non-QAT atom would benefit from the increased frequency and core count while the QAT-enabled ones (C2XX8) will likely never support acceleration.
The performance of the XG-7100 looks good but nics from other Denverton boards are not yet supported in (community) pfSense. I could go for one of the A2SDI-* boards but they are not supported for the time being.
Have you seen any statement regarding the availability of quickassist acceleration in the community edition for non-Netgate Denverton hardware?
Thanks.
