That's good info to start your post. :D

2U Server with 8 cores at least, some reasonable Xeon. Not sure if this is 10G accumulated on 1G or actual 10G or 10G is your max per port at the moment but you need to look at 40G or 100G.

You may be disappointed with firewall throughput if you expect 10G on 10G.


Cheers,
Franco

Only Chelsio 100G is supported by FreeBSD at the moment. You are better off with a Linux.
