PPS for PIX535

[cconte]

Does anybody know what the maximum pps the pix535 can handle?

[Patrick Iseli]

The last note in the Quick Reference Guide from april 2003 says 1.7Gbps.

PIX 535 • Carrier class large enterprise and service provider firewall appliance

• Up to 1.7 Gbps of firewall throughput1

• Up to 440 Mbps of 3DES/AES-256 VPN throughput using hardware acceleration (integrated in select

models, optional for others)

• VPN concentrator services (Easy VPN Server) for up to 2,000 remote users

• Gigabit Ethernet throughput; Up to ten 10/100 FE or nine Gigabit Ethernet interfaces

• VLAN trunking (802.1q tag-based) and OSPF dynamic routing support

• Redundant, hot-swappable power supplies

• Active/standby stateful failover support

But that might be higher by now.

sincerely

Patrick

Thank you for the response, but I already read the link you got that from. There is nothing about Maximum PPS on the performance. Am I missing something?
