VMware Server or Compact Firewall?
I’m tired of trying to do a million things with DD-WRT, and feel that 100Mbps on the WAN link may not be fast enough soon with DOCSIS 3.0. So I’ve come up with two options:
- Create a small router/firewall with an embedded board, like a Soekris kit and end up with something like this:
- Create a beastly VMware server using more commodity hardware and virtualize my router (my switch supports VLAN tagging).
What would you do?
