hi guys, i have a question, now i'm using an apu1d4 with 30gb msata for my sophos utm. it's work perfectly with utm.

now i have a new fiber 100mbps download and 50mbps upload and apu1d4 is slower for new line (with advance  threat and ips i take 30mbps) and i'm searching a new hardware for sophos xg/utm. i'm using openvpn and IPsec, from laptop sometime and i want to you use it always active on my android device

i see many post about this things (saying zbox ci 320 etc but noone ci323) and i want to know if this choose is good for me.

i need an little box fanless, my big problem is that i'm italian (you see from my bad english.. sorry for that xD) and if i buy out europe i will pay too much taxes

i see this Zbox CI323 nano (2 nics, celeron n3150 (with aes encryption) 4 gb 1600mhz and 30gb ssd, does anyone knows if the wifi chipset is compatible?) it take 190euro only box (30euro ssd 35euro 4gb ram), is ti good choise for me?

thanks for your time and sorry again for my english

  • Hi,

    In general, wireless chips are not supported.

    The Celeron n3150 is a Braswell Silvermont chip, which is the new 'Atom' architecture... generally it is designed for very low power rather than performance.
    I don't know if it'll run well at 100mbps. Maybe. (I do know that a fast i3 will work great.)

    Note the IPS is typically the bottleneck for the CPU. Tuning the rulesets and using the ruleset aging can help a bit.

  • thanks for reply Barry, i'm searching a little fanless box because mini itx it seems to much big and more expensive (is it true?) i tryied to contact italian sellers for sophos xg appliance but they don't sell private only businness :(..

    if anyone knows alternatives of this box (or similar for dimensions and price) i apprecciate tips

    thanks for your time

  • You don't want Sophos hardware for this project unless cost is not important.  BarryG's been in these forums for many years - I would take his recommendation about the i3.
