Greetings. I'm looking for a SoC (or other small) machine to act as a gateway between two physical networks (in fact, an ordinary one and an IPMI). Thus I'm looking for such a device which has at least two ethernet interfaces, and can run FreeBSD. There are multiple boards listed at <https://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/arm>, but the boards under the 'Well supported boards' headings appear only to have single interfaces (though I wouldn't claim an exhaustive search). I can see what appear to be nice multiple-interface boards at <https://www.solid-run.com/marvell-armada-family/>, but they're listed under 'unknown support'. I can see some notes on some Marvell boards at <https://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSDMarvell>, but these refer to FreeBSD 8.x and 9-CURRENT, so are clearly not up-to-date. Searching the list archives, I find <https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arm/2015-February/010300.html>; that at least some people are using 11.0-CURRENT on an Armada/Marvell board, but (given that that's a bug report) I'm not sure if that usage counts as ...Brave or not. There's clearly a lot of hardware possibilities here, but I surely can't be the first person to want such a device. Does anyone on this list have any advice?
