<p dir="ltr">Seriously, poke around ebay for some older supermicro or dell gear. Most have dual nics and thus make great firewalls. At $150 or so, having a standard box makes for relatively easy setup. There are some half length supermicro boxes around that are barely larger than a rack mount switch.</p><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5">

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
- Speech 11/23/1900 Mark Twain
