Questions Folks,

Which FreeBSD supported hardware platform would you reccomend using
for SYN mitigation? Why?

I intend to start building a squid cache on FreeBSD to inspect
HTTP/HTTPS packets before passing them to the destination host and
would very much appreciate any suggestions on the subject.

Thanks,
