What is the meaning of those sentences? Please explain.

  1. NGFW performance is measured with Firewall, IPS and Application Control enabled.
  2. Threat Protection performance is measured with Firewall, IPS, Application Control and Malware Protection enabled.

Hello @Shahariar2112 ,

 

When you read the datasheet, you can see these warnings. These warnings mean if you open these features at the same time you can get maximum to x throughput from that firewall. 

 

Every feature you open decreases firewall throughput.

For example this picture from the 100F datasheet. As you can see NGFW throughput is 1.6Gbit but Threat Protection throughput is 1Gbit. The reason for that is threat protection throughput measurement includes malware protection. That is, it was measured by turning on an extra feature.

 

If you have found a solution, please like and accept it to make it easily accessible to others.
