A lot depends on the bandwidth you are planning on using inside the VPN. I'm using a 4801 with pfsense, running openvpn, and a few tunnels to access some RDP sessions while I am away from home work great.

Sustained network traffic of a couple of MBit/s is a bit more troublesome, in my experience.

Greets,

Nils

Hi All
 
Being brand new to the world of soekris, I'm sort of stumbling around in the dark, and I hope somebody can enlighten me :-)
 
I'm considering 5501-70 board for use here in Lynge at our mainsite.
We in the IT department would probably like to have a VPN connection to the site.
So the question is, will the 5501-70 be tough enough to handle a few VPN connections, or do we need to add the vpn1411, and will the vpn1411 even work with VPN in pfSense (IPsec, OpenVPN)?
 
Best regards
Kenneth
