I currently use, between my xDSL box and my LAN machines, an ATX-format box running a pretty old GNU/Linux system with a Jay's Firewall setup but I'd like to replace it w/ a fanless small barebone like the Zotac CI327: minimum hardware and cost but it has 2 LAN connectors - that's my point for rooting at home: WAN <-> xDSL modem <-> rooter-linux-box <-> LAN <-> local machines.

I wanted to ask if you use something, any helper installed on this rooter box, on top of firewalld/iptables, in order to setup and administrate the NAT/rooting (and eventually proxy) rules?> > I currently use, between my xDSL box and my LAN machines, an ATX-format > > box running a pretty old GNU/Linux system with a Jay's Firewall setup > > but I'd like to replace it w/ a fanless small barebone like the Zotac > > CI327: ... > this zbox has in comparison to the CI323 a different CPU, which I don't > know if this is supported by CentOS > (I didn't mention, that I use CentOS 6 ...)That's a good point to check, you're right, support for this CPU in either CentOS6 or 7.
