Yes I like this idea been big on VM's for a while but does it protect the net work for other machine on the net work whats the through put like and hows it set up…?Īny one have any ideas on best working set up. It allows you to have both the MacOS and pfSense running simultaneously. They sound great but I don't think I would have much left over after buying this fantastic piece of equipment and as for selling the mac I won't get much more then a couple of hundred dollars Australian for it I just looked at what they were selling for same as the iPhone 8 plus won't get much here for it second can also get VMware Fusion and use that as the hypervisor. Flexibility is built in to the SG-3100 with upgrade options such as a m.2 SATA SSD, LTE cellular, or mPCIe Wi-Fi. With preloaded pfSense software, the SG-3100 is a fast networking security solution unencumbered by traditional annual contracts, licensing fees, or artificial limitations. The SG-3100 pfSense Security Gateway Appliance can be configured as a firewall, LAN or WAN router, VPN appliance, DHCP Server, DNS Server, and IDS/IPS with optional packages to deliver a high performance, high throughput front-line security appliance at an excellent price in a compact footprint. Thanks for the advice but i think ill stick to this idea…. Pocket the rest of the money for something else.
It’s a fantastic router and supports the project. Use part of the money to buy the SG-3100 from Netgate. While it might be neat to make work I would sell the mini on eBay since they get 4-500 for a 2012.
So has anyone done this before if so I would like a walk through of the install process if possible or if there is too much of a problem with the hardware side not compatible with pfsense thanks.
Bar putting a 250GB ssd in it and selling it on ebay and buying a diy box in its place then I would rather use this mac mini). (yes!, I know, over kill, but I don't care it is laying around doing nothing here.
I want to install pfsense on a mac mini late 2012 dual core i7 Have been searching on the internet on other forums and around for someone with the knowledge or know how or has done this before:.
