Cisco ASA 5585 Route Table Limits

[armartirosyan]

Hello security experts,

I can't find an answer to my question and I hope you can help me out. 

Who knows how many routes the 5585 can support? We are deploying it in an enterprise environment and it will be configured with OSPF routing protocol. It should see about 40k-50k routes in it's table. Do you think the ASA can handle this amout of route entries or not? 

Any additional information is very much appriciated!

Hi,

 What can be easily found is those information:

Firewall Throughput (bps) 3G
Max Firewall Throughput (bps) 4G
Packets per Second (PPS) 1.5M
Connections per Second (CPS) 65K
Concurrent Connections 1M

Cisco dont mention Routing Table. Routing table is usually limited by the memory capacity.

 In your case, a good practice is summary routing as much as possible.
