Yes, pfSense can be virtualized. I did it once with VMWare to create a site2site tunnel, although I used Workstation 10 on Windows7 rather than the bare metal ESXi, but I wouldn't expect any changes. On Mon, Oct 20, 2014 at 4:34 PM, Skeeve Stevens < skeeve+nanog@eintellegonetworks.com> wrote:
What I'd really love is a vAppliance. Some of these hardware solutions are VERY expensive for offering only an average solution. I'd also rather not rely on their hardware, but servers with VMware (or whatever) that we can design our own redundancy.
Does anyone know if Allot does a Virtual Appliance?
I've also heard that pfSense is an interesting option... That could easily be virtualised I would assume.

Hey all,
Just wondering what/if people are using any shaping hardware/appliances these days, and if so, what.
I have a client which has thousands of customers on Satellite and needs to restrict some users who are doing a lot.
So I wanted to see what the current popular equipment out there is.
