Hi all,

Had any one manage to install it on Vmware Workstation / esxi ?

Have a look at this: http://blogs.vmware.com/guestosguide/2014/09/freebsd-10-0.html

We are very much FreeBSD 10.0 under the hood. I don't see why this won't work. :)

I installed it on ESXi 5.1 with no issues. It got stuck at 67% for a while but then installed fine. When I got the screen to reboot the server the installer got to an error so I had to manually restart but all is good now.

Just doing some A B comparisons between this and OPNsense. Looks good so far and the performance seems to be about the same. Was having some issues with DHCP but not sure if it is me or OPNSense will report back later.

Installed on ESXi 6.0 here, version 11 type VM.
Think that's version 11, highest anyway.
Running with vmxnet3 NICs.
