  • Firewall Latency (64 Byte UDP Packets): 3 μs or less, representing the delay introduced by the firewall for processing packets.
  • Firewall Throughput (Packets per Second): Up to 12 Mpps or more, showing the number of packets the firewall can process per second.
• Concurrent Sessions (TCP): Supports up to 6,000,000 concurrent TCP sessions, enabling it to handle a large number of simultaneous connections in a network environment.
• New Sessions/Second (TCP): Can handle up to 200,000 new TCP sessions per second, which is important for networks with high traffic volumes and frequent new connections.
• Firewall Policies: Allows for the creation and management of up to 10,000 firewall policies, providing fine-grained control over network traffic.
• IPsec VPN Throughput (512 Byte): Up to 7 Gbps or more, ensuring efficient and secure virtual private network connections.
• Gateway-to-Gateway IPsec VPN Tunnels: Supports up to 2,000 gateway-to-gateway IPsec VPN tunnels for establishing secure site-to-site connections.
• Client-to-Gateway IPsec VPN Tunnels: Can handle up to 50,000 client-to-gateway IPsec VPN tunnels, enabling remote users to securely access the network.
• SSL-VPN Throughput: Typically around 350 Mbps or higher, providing a secure remote access solution with good performance.
• Concurrent SSL-VPN Users (Recommended Maximum, Tunnel Mode): Up to 500 concurrent SSL-VPN users in tunnel mode, allowing multiple remote users to access the network simultaneously.
• SSL Inspection Throughput (IPS, http): Around 1.9 Gbps or more, enabling the inspection of encrypted SSL traffic for security threats.
• Application Control Throughput (http64k): Up to 4 Gbps or higher, allowing for effective control and filtering of application-level traffic.
