[Soekris] Soekris 5501 and pfSense with VPN

[Nils Vogels]

A lot depends on the bandwidth you are planning on using inside the VPN. I'm
using a 4801 with pfsense, running openvpn, and a few tunnels to access some
RDP sessions while I am away from home work great.

Sustained network traffic of a couple of MBit/s is a bit more troublesome,
in my experience.

Greets,

Nils
