Hi Patrick,

You're a star!

Thank you so much for all your inputs and for the links as well.

I will add more RAM on the PC and then start reading on the links you've provided.

Hi Patrick,

Thanks a bunch for your reply. This is great news!

I have a dedicated PC running Intel i5 quad core with 4GB ram. It has Mellanox ConnectX-4 Dual SFP+ port installed on PCIE 3.0 x8. I plan to use this as the router to receive the internet connection from my ISP on the 1st port, and then DAC cable the 2nd port to my Mikrotik Switch with 8 SFP+

Is the 4GB Ram enough? or do you think I should put another 4GB?

Thanks once again.

Hi Everyone,

I am new to OPNsense and I am wondering if it can handle 10 Gbe (dl/up) Internet connection from my ISP via static IPV6.

Please note I am not a network pro, just someone who likes tech and fast internet

Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards,
