PfSense is one of the most used open source firewalls which runs on it’s own dedicated hardware. In shot : Everything described here works just as well with OpenSense. OPNSense is just as good (IMO) as pfSense – after years of using pfSense, OPNSense has now become my favorite though.īoth are great firewalls though and in my case I initially only switched to OPNSense because of its WireGuard support (by the time you read this, pfSense will probably support WireGuard just as well, I think).
