Hi,
In some cases we run small FreeBSD VM's that act as a firewall in front of Windows VM's, using pf with a binat configuration (can't trust the Windows firewall). Right now I'm configuring those FreeBSD VM's with 256MB of memory. I was wondering if someone has any idea what the minimal specs of such a VM could be in order for pf to do its work properly. Let's say we'd like to handle at least 100Mbit of traffic. The CPU from the VMWare host is a Xeon L5640, so no issues there.
Anyone with such experience?
