Yes, it does, but getting a couple old off lease desktops (or even thin clients for re-purposing) from Ebay and a $10 network switch will be a very worthwhile investment for someone who's interested in learning the tech.
Examples (as of today, anyway):
I use one of these as my home firewall with a quad core NIC zip tied to the top:

Also, if you're willing to buy in bulk (I know this company will take an offer for $55):
