Can the N100 even run two ports at line speed, let alone 6? Having 2.5Gps ports is cool and all but even using it as a 2-port firewall I’d be curious what throughput you could get with it.

I've got a Protectli VP2420 running OPNSense at home, which has 4x Intel i225-V 2.5gbe running on a weaker Celeron J6412, and I was able to get the expected iperf performance of ~2.35gbps from some brief testing between two directly connected machines. I didn't really do any deeper testing than that though, and I'm not currently doing any crazy threat detection stuff.

This has seperate Intel i226-V NICs, so it's not all on the CPU, but I guess the actual throughput would need to be tested.
