Not exactly the same, but kind of.

217 euros? You crazy?

Do your maths. What do you need for the raspi? Plus a managable switch. Plus the time you loose every now and then to get the stuff updated, plus, plus plus.

It's not worth it. Try it out. Write us here how it worked.... ;-)

Well you are at a part right, like it will take time and it will be frustrating but 217? I can make a mini pc on my own with that.

Yepp, fan-free? Go ahead! I built my first sense with an old notebook for testing, some old workstation, then fan-free stuff. Now mostly Optiplex or alike... :-)

 This seems the most economical and then I add a cheap ram and an ssd I already have. What ram does this take really? Laptop ram?

Which services are needes besides the simple routing? (4-)8 GB is OK for normal use, more is better for Suricata etc...

OPNsense 24.1 aarch64 packages and sets released.

The upgrade path from 23.7.x is the same as on amd64 - update to OPNsense 23.7.12_5 (also released today) to unlock the upgrade.

[Update 2024-01-31]
Hotfix 24.1_1 released.

That was quick, nice!

Thanks for pushing the tags one day in advance, Franco! A full build always takes 10h+ on my aarch64 VM, but since this was done overnight, I only had to hotfix 23.7.12 and do some testing today. Working flawlessly so far!

Except for Suricata it looks good indeed.
