## Description

Protectli Vault is a small form factor PC for use as a firewall micro appliance / mini PC / router. Thanks to the fanless design, the Vault is completely quiet, very compact and can be placed anywhere. Tested for compatibility: Vault has been tested in many of the most popular open source software firewall solutions. Compatible with pfSense CE, untangle, OPNsense, VyOS, Security Onion, VyOSm, CentOS 7, *BSD, Linux, Windows and more. Protectli provides an optional open source device firmware core boot for hardware for maximum security, transparency, and auditability. For an additional layer of security, Protectli will soon provide a secure boot that works with the core boot. The FW2B Vault is based on a two network port design leveraging a low-power, yet versatile dual-core Intel Celeron J3060 CPU. This CPU supports AES-NI, Intel encryption hardware acceleration. Vault uses standard Intel components (including Intel network ports) and is compatible with a variety of operating systems, including many open source firewall projects. Since the Vault is fanless, there are no moving parts to make it a very durable platform that can be used in the ideal environment. Aluminum housing (not plastic) is a giant heatsink that keeps your CPU cool. Enclosure has pre-drilled holes for Protectli wireless kits. FW2B can accommodate up to 8GB of DDR3L-1600 RAM and 1TB mSATA storage drive. Visit Protectli website for more details.

Review: Läuft in nem LAN Party Rack mit OPNsense als Firewall. Einfach top.
Review: I've been using this over a year and it's been flawless. I installed pfsense on it and I think it's overbuilt for just that but it's been set and forget the entire time. I just don't have to think about it it's been so reliable. I have it running the firewall between WAN and 4 VLANs and it's been great.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many dimm slots ?**
A: 1 SODIMM - up to 8GB DDR3L

**Q: Its compatible with sophos XG Home firewall?**
A: It should work with Sophos, since this is basically just a small computer with two network ports.  I bought one of these and put 4GB RAM and a 60GB SSD in it.  I tried to use it as a basic router with pfSense on it, and the performance was awful.  I had to remove it and put my Edgerouter ERX back in place.  I don't know if the performance problem was with pfSense, or with the network ports.  Installing the RAM and SSD was easy.  I tried to load pfSense from a DVD, but it would never complete booting.  I setup a USB stick to boot and load pfSense, and it was quick and easy.  Performance of the computer itself seems good, but network performance with pfSense was awful.

**Q: What chip is using the nic? is it intel?**
A: These devices have the Intel i211-AT PHY.  Further information about the platform, including a datasheet, can be found on the protectli website

**Q: Is there room for a standard length pci-e ( usb ) expansion card inside? interested in adding a sierra wireless mc7455 (or similar) LTE module.**
A: No, there is not room for expansion cards.  There is only room for the RAM module, the mSata SSD, and the mini wi-fi card option that they sell.
