    To test the FG-500D IPv4 firewall throughput accurately, set up a controlled lab with high-speed traffic generators on both sides, multiple 10/25/40Gbps NICs, and ensure no other bottlenecks (like switch limitations). Measure sustained traffic with realistic packet sizes to validate the 16 Gbps claim.
