[ale] OPNsense vs pfSense: was Recommendation Request - Router / MiniPC

[Chuck Payne]

OPNSense broke off from pfSense.  I have tried it, but didn't like it. We
used pfSense at work for IPS tunnel between the office and our DC, I have
at the office, it great that I can just VPN and use my lab. I use from my
laptop and my phone.
