Title: Hardware to 100 OpenVPN clients
Post by: naltalef on March 06, 2020, 03:43:51 PM
Hi.
I need to install OPNSense to support about 100 OpenVPN clients simultaneously.
I'm planning to use a Lanner NCA 1031D (Atom N4200 with 8 GB RAM).

- Will the hardware be enough?
- What resource will be the most used? Memory? Processor? Both of them ?
- What other topic should I consider?

Many thanks in advance.
Regards

Norberto

Please choose i3, i5 or Xeon CPU. It also depends in the traffic.

Hi, Thans for your advice.
Although the bandwidth did not seem to be too much, since they have a 100 MB link, I will go for a core i3 or i5.
