NP6Xlite and UTM
Hi,
I read that the NP6XLite processor ensures hardware acceleration of network traffic, which enables the processing of large volumes of data without heavy CPU load. This acceleration mainly applies to basic functions such as routing, NAT, IPsec, and firewall, and advanced functions such as UTM (for example, antivirus, web filter, DLP or IPS) usually require the intervention of the main CPU, since the hardware acceleration on the NP6XLite is not optimized for these more complex processes. When hardware acceleration is enabled and UTM rules are applied, there may be situations where some traffic is not redirected back to the CPU and UTM rules may not be applied correctly.
But is it correct? I thought that NP6XLite is used for UTM functions such as IPS, web filter, etc.
