This looks like a hint? Anything you can share?I think that this space is going to get really interesting in the next few months.

That's been in their catalog for a while now - probably not what Patrick is hinting at because if he is hinting around it means there is something he's got on a press release blackout NDA.
I'm interested to see how ARM develops. Currently there is no support for PFSense to run on ARM, however, hardware-wise should be interesting to see the Win 10 ARM devices that come out. Should make some interesting cannibalization for other projectsI think the C2358 is a great pfsense platform. I do think some of the ARM options are going to be exciting for network appliances soon too. The most exciting bit is that many of the new SoCs are integrating 2x 10GbE as standard.
DAMN bds, nice find and I am surprised I didn't see those, a little too rich for this project but they look solid. That RCC-VE 2440 looks SEXY, quad port intel nics give me tech chub for a pfSense platform. Why does the board pic on their website look like it has 6 RJ-45 eth ports but w/ the shell on only ythe quad i354 is exposed? Odd I thought. Maybe they just flip-flopped a RCC-VE 4860 pic.Netgate's 4 port c2358 offering is going to be interesting for the price point for sure.

The other interesting one is 2 port for $279
Netgate RCC-DFF 2220 Intel Rangeley C2350 Dual Core Board
The higher end netgate offerings are going to be interesting for me because of the processor capability. Add a really good ssd, Virtualize pfsense & your RODC, your ip-pbx and now you have an AIO SMB remote site solution. Super fast vpn due to the AES-ni support and gigabit routing, along with hosting your RODC.
Easy peasy my man...dontcha' just love one liners? :-D (in Linux anyways this works, follow official pfSense link I list for other OS's)Now I've gotta figure out if any of the CF cards I have around are big enough, and how I'm going to get the pfSense image onto one of them.
I like these units, I have bought and deployed 20 or so (a few for myself)I wanted to buy this:
Eglobal Barebone mini pc J1900 Quad core 4 LAN 1080P 12V Mini Desktop Computer 1*VGA Free Shipping-in Mini PCs from Computer & Office on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group
But can't pay for it. I really don't want to send AliExpress my card statement and driver's license and what not. So I have to find a reasonable alternative. This would have had 4 lan ports for less than the NetGate 2 port version. This J1900 kit is on Amazon, but not for AliExpress prices
NopeNo aes-ni on those right?
On yes it does, I was forgetting AMD still made cpu's. And 3 x nic is also useful.Apu2 has aes-ni
