Hi,

Currently we are using dual FG-224B in HA mode. We need to update our firewalls with new and cheaper one. (down grading our fw level)

We are looking either 60D or 90D as our replacements.

 

Can you suggests which have the similar performance comparing with the Spec of 224B.

I have checked their data sheet, and their terminologies have changed and additional information are mentioned; make its confused.

 

Please guide me to decide the unit.

    How much data throughput are you needing with IPS/UTM etc?

     

    You can use NGFW or IPSEC as a close comparison  to the old UTM parameters. I personally have a hard time suggesting less than a 92D these days but that is because internet connections are getting so damn fast.

    60/90D is a rather big step down from a 224B. If you plan on using anything else then plain firewalling (NAT, stateful packet inspection), go with a 100D.
