The server runs at about 10% average and it took literally about 10 minutes to set all of this up. The problem you may have with monoowall and I need to refresh myself with the documentation again but I believe it only supports 3 network interfaces. If you populate the box with Intel pro 1000 gigabit network cards they do support vlan tagging though. Good luck and let us know what you might end up with.
