  • 1.  Performance of the Lan Gateway

    Posted Sep 07, 2010 07:04 PM

    Is anyone using the LAN Gateway appliance in an evironment with 25-30,000 users?  We are being told that the Gateway enforcer appliances are sized to accommodate 25,000 IP addresses per physical enforcer.  There seems to be some confusion on what we actually measure but the number is indeed 25,000 IP addresses per enforcer.   Does anyone know how many sessions per IP an enforcer can support?  So can one enforcer handle 25,000 ip addreses and x number of sessions per ip?


    Any feedback on this would be most helpful!


    Thank you.

    There are no sessions, just IP address(=sessions in that context only). Only looks at IP address, and sends UDP 3999 for HI. Only maintains session of the IP, you can do as much as you want from that IP for application sessions. It is not a FW, just a non intelligent Layer 2 bridge.
