<pre wrap="">THAT is a tough requirement.
I was going to recommend the Alix boards. they run pfSense really
nicely, and should be able to run a stripped down centos install OK.
with pfSense, you can boot from a CF card, so no HD at all.
The Alix cards use a 433-500Mhz AMD Geode ultra-low power processor, on
a 6x6 card. they use 5 watts fully configured.
but, 100Mbit/sec SSL encryption, ouch. don't know. you'd probably
have to benchmark that.

<pre wrap="">you need hardware encryption hardware or core2duo like processor ..

Then the Mac mini might be what I need performancewise. I am also
considering Dell R210's as I would really like an enterprise solution.
Anyone have any experience with Habey?

a wide selection of barebones Intel Atoms, including the 1.8Ghz Intel
D525's as well as Pentium 4's with broadcom ethernets and systems with
up to 6 ethernets. My sense is that I will still use some of these
systems for firewall and management functions (i.e. firewalling Dell
IDRAC6 cards) even if the encryption for the vpn has to run on a faster
box. 50MB would probably be adequate.
Thank you all for your responses.

Hi,<br>
<br>
We use the following. It has hardware encryption in the EDEN Via
processor.<br>
We were able to get 22 mbits across an ipsec tunnel using AES
encryption.<br>
This more than enough unless you have a DS3 circuit.<br>
