$359.00

You are buying a used but in perfect working condition Infoblox Trinzic 1405 (Supermicro X11SSW-F* variant) network appliance that has been reloaded with a fresh installation of the latest version of pfSense (Community Edition).
It is powered by a quad core Xeon E3-1275 v5 CPU clocked at 3.60GHz, and comes with 32GB of DDR4 RAM (2x16GB ECC UDIMMs) and a 80GB SSD. It has 4x 1Gb Ethernet ports, 4x 10Gb SFP+ ports (Chelsio T540) and 2x 40Gb QSFP+ (Mellanox ConnectX-3 Pro).I configured the HA Ethernet port (white ethernet cable in pictures) as the WAN and bridged the remaining ports as members of the same LAN (Switch configuration).
The pfSense configuration page can be accessed at 192.168.10.1, credentials are admin/Passw0rd. This device has an embedded board management controller (BMC) with a dedicated IPMI port, so it can be accessed and monitored remotely. Credentials for the BMC are ADMIN/ADMIN.
As you can see from the dashboard screenshot, it was able to handle up to 30Gb of traffic. For the test I used all 4 SFP+ ports as clients (4 different machines) to an iperf server connected via the 40Gb QSFP+ port.
This device is ideal for a homelab firewall/switch combo. It can handle the traffic of multiple 10Gb clients without being as power hungry or as loud as most 10Gb switches.
Pictures are of the actual device you will receive. A pair of power cables is also included.
Thanks

* I flashed the BIOS with the latest Supermicro firmware including the BMC. The original BIOS was locked.
