ASA5515-X performance, great SSL offloading

[Michael Muenz]

Hi,

this post is not a question, rather a reference for others searching for real world performance:

Running a central 5515-X with 100 IPSEC EasyVPN branches and around 60Mbit traffic (no QoS, no UTM/NG stuff, just VPN and ACLs)

CPU is 45% and Mem 900MB.

After switching off old Gateway handling Anyconnect the system is now running 100 IPSEC AND 70 concurrent Anyconnect sessions.

CPU and Mem didn't change and performance is great!

Perhaps other guys want to post their real world performance? :)

Thanks for posting those numbers.  It is always good to have some real measurable results.
