- IMIX Traffic: 594 Mbps
Firewall
(10k ACLs)
- IPERF3 Traffic: 964 Mbps
- IMIX Traffic: 249 Mbps
IPsec VPN
(AES-GCM-128 / AES-NI w/ SafeXcel)
- IPERF3 Traffic: 254 Mbps
- IMIX Traffic: 90 Mbps
Netgate 2100 performance tests conducted with pfSense Plus software version 22.01
CPU: The Dual core ARM v8 Cortex-A53 1.2 GHz delivers 2.20 Gbps routing for common iPerf3 traffic and over 964 Mbps of firewall throughput.
Network Ports: Flexible 5-port combination including (1) 4-Port 1 GbE Marvell switch and a dedicated (1) GbE WAN RJ45/SFP combo port.
Storage: 8 GB eMMC Flash onboard (or optional 128 GB M.2 SATA 2242 SSD)
Memory: 4 GB DDR4, DDR4 memory allows more stable, higher transfer rates for memory-intensive applications (e.g. IDS/IPS).
Cooling: The passive cooling system and low power draw of the Netgate 2100 provides efficient thermal management and silent operation expected from smaller devices despite its significantly higher performance.
pfSense Plus software provides the performance, flexibility, reliability and business assurance expected from leading secure networking applications:
- Up to 10 Gbps performance
- Flexible 3rd-party application options
- Traditional management mechanisms
- Proven reliability
- Complete business assurance support
All at a fraction of the cost of proprietary alternatives, pfSense Plus software is the perfect answer. Popular pfSense Plus use cases include load balancing, traffic shaping, captive portal, UTM device, DNS/DHCP Server, IDS/IPS, failover WAN, and much more.
