I am saying that given what was said in this thread thus far you should re-evaluate your expectations and what you are willing to put in to make this work. I am not saying you shouldn't, and I'm not saying you don't have the skills. These are IDS/IPS systems, and require attention, they are not set and forget. Your going to be dealing with systems like snort or suricata if you want actual DDoS mitigation. But it's going to be a far cry from pretty buttons.
They have setup wizards, but if you are not strong in networking expect to be asked things you might not understand.Ĭonsumer equipment rally dumbs down firewalls, both pfsense and opnsense made it a bit easier on the eyes than say untangle, or sophos. These are routing OSs that are used in production environments. I'm not sure what you mean by "pre-configured" but you are not talking about some walmart linksys if thats what you mean. You can find the option(s) you want "eventually" what you wan't to look at is to taste though. So you are then converting either an existing wifi router to AP mode (if it supports it) or purchasing a separate one.Īs for which is more usable, idk, that's totally subjective. You then need to get into the world of add-on wifi, since you will be running a firewall/routing appliance that by its very nature does not have built in wifi. A bandwidth driven DDoS will not be solved with a firewall period. Thanks in advance for any help or pointers.Ī lot fo questions can't be answered and a lot of problems can't be solved with what you are trying to do. My concern is I have never used pfSense before, and I wonder how easy is it to install (via a bootable USB drive I believe?) and configure it, vs using the SG-3100 that has all the settings preset? And how long does it take to set up a very tight configuration? Any "preset" configuration that I can download? What is the correct way of doing this - should I enable DHCP and DNS from this machine and disable DHCP/DNS of my current Router, or should I continue to use DHCP/DNS of my current Router? I need WiFI, so do I connect another port to my WiFi Router LAN port?Ĥ. Do I connect one of the ports to my local LAN switch?ģ. So do I plug in from the Comcast modem (WAN) to any one of the ports?Ģ. Do I need to buy an Intel NIC? I read and found Intel i350-T4 to be compatible. Here is where I don't know how to start -ġ.
Intel i7-3700S or 3770t, both can handle AES-NI This is for home office and we are getting lots of DDOS attacks and I am having concern if my current router NETGEAR 4-Stream Wifi 6 Router (RAX15) can handle it well.Ĭustom PC parts, and I believe should be adequate. I am looking to either building a simple PC using spare parts vs buying the Netgate SG-3100.
