It happens that local provided offers 10Gbit fibre (XGS-PON) via PPPOE (yes, it’s quite crazy) for a reasonable price.
I am curious what type of hardware will be enough for 10Gbit PPPOE?
Especially I am looking for something with as low as possible idle power consumption.
On a software side I am thinking about vyOS.
There are some firewall boxes with Intel U300E and 2xSFP+ cages, but not sure how good they are.
I’m with bell in Canada and they have something similar. My GPON is connected to a mikrotik switch and I use OPNSense on a Proxmox VM to manage the PPPOE handshake.
Mine is only 1.5gbps but it works great! It’s super stable.
