Linux on a Netgate SG-8860-1U
I recently obtained a second-hand Netgate SG-8860-1U firewall, which has now replaced my PC Engines apu2c4 board as the router in my home network. The apu2c4 is a perfectly good piece of hardware, but it only has three Ethernet ports compared to six on the Netgate machine. I was using all three ports (one connected to my modem and two bonded together and connected to my managed switch), so having some spare ports for expansion is useful – I’m already thinking about how I could rewire things to try to achieve 2 gigabits/sec with bonding between my desktop and server.
