With a Chelsio T5 you might get some decent pure routing / NAT performance with the right card mod, but as soon as it goes into firewall/ACL/QoS etc, performance will tank drastically. On Apr 18, 2016 7:49 AM, "Micah Croff" <micahcroff () gmail com> wrote:
I haven't tried to do 10Gb with it but pfSense isn't a horrible option. I've done 1G with left over computer parts and for the most part it works well. https://www.pfsense.org/ For "free" software it is pretty feature rich.

Which customer router would you suggest for such a setup? It needs to do IPv4 NAT, DHCP, IPv4+IPv6 routing and have a decent L4 firewall (thatalsosupports IPv6). The customer pays for "2Gb" service (Comcast caps this at 2G+10% =2.2Gbps)and would like to get what he pays for (*cough*) by having the ability to stream two 1Gbps streams (or at least achieve > 1.0Gbps). I'm tempted to get another ACX-2100 and do a 4x1Gb LACP port-channel tothecustomer switch, or replace the AV-integrator-installed Cisco SG300-52P (Cisco switch with e.g. an EX-3300 with 10Gb uplinks). Thanks in advance for your suggestions. -Dave
