                4 years ago I changed SonicWall for Pfsense.

                One of the best changes I've ever done.

                  We've been replacing pfSenses with UBNT, also a nice move 🙂

                    As opposed to what? Having a disconnected management LAN and only jump boxes to get to them?

                      I think he was referring to inbound NAT / port forwarding from the internet as opposed to LAN only access

                        Oh, yeah PORT FORWARDING to an iDRAC would be pretty "not recommended." But behind a NAT firewall would just allow them to reach out and update, and no one to reach in by default.

                          UBNT

                          For what reason? Are there any problem with Pfsense ?

                            Not problems, pfSense is a good product. The biggest "problem" is the lack of vertical integration with hardware. With the UBNT we get software custom made for the specific hardware, and support. So we don't have to do our own installs, and don't need random third party software. It's one, inclusive package that is well known and tested both in the field and by the vendor. pfSense is software only and as a software firewall would be at the top of my list. But we deploy hardware and the benefits are the lower cost, better supported hardware with massive supply chain are pretty impossible to beat.

                            And the central monitoring features of UBNT carry a lot of value. We get centralized visibility.

                                PFSense has a newer fork now as well, known as OPNSense (https://opnsense.org/)

                                More modern UI and such, decent packages available if you need extra stuff, but as far as routing and a firewall, it's pretty excellent!

                                  Both have a third party UTM add on option, too.
