This section describes the real-world performance of network firewall router hardware with respect to multiple Firewall/Routing/All-In-One OS. There are many factors which influence the performance of firewall/routing etc.

1. Throughput 2. Features/Applications 3. Version of OS 4. Network Card Chipset 5. Number of Users

1. Throughput Traffic Load is very major part of performance notes, if there is less traffic then less load on device CPU & RAM with better performance. More traffic needs more processing and can reduce the through of appliance.

2. Features/Applications Most of features do not factor into hardware performance though a few have significant impact on hardware utilization.

VPN: Heavy use of any of the VPN services included in pfSense, Untangle & Sophos etc. will increase CPU requirements. Encrypting and decrypting traffic is CPU intensive. The number of connections is much less of a concern than the throughput required. - 266 MHz CPU will max out at around 4 Mbps of IPsec throughput - 500 MHz CPU can push 10-15 Mbps of IPsec - i7 CPU or Xeon new generation support 100 Mbps of IPsec traffic Supported encryption cards, such as several from Hifn, are capable of significantly reducing CPU requirements.

Squid – Squidguard: Outgoing traffic control through proxy both packages rely heavily both the CPU and disk writes. It is therefore strongly recommended to use with the Entry level and the use of AUTM and AUTM2 with DOM devices. For this kind of work is strongly recommended to use AUTM, AUTM2 and microcluster with SSD or classics disks. However, it is also possible the optimized use with only the package on the entry level as long as you turn off any kind of writing on the disk media and strong expense of performance.

Captive Portal: While the primary concern is typically throughput, environments with hundreds of simultaneous captive portal users (of which there are many) will require slightly more CPU power than recommended above.

Large State Tables: State table entries require about 1 KB of RAM each. The default state table, when full at 10,000 entries, takes up a little less than 10 MB RAM. For large environments requiring state tables with hundreds of thousands of connections, ensure adequate RAM is available.

Packages: Some of the packages increase RAM requirements significantly. Snort and ntop are two that should not be installed on a system with less than 512 MB RAM.

3. Version of OS We must emphasize the difference between the two types of installations that you can do with pfSense and Untangle etc. on the different devices - The embedded solution (firewall Entry Level) does NOT allow the writing of log files on the memory (CF or DOM) and in any case, it is strongly discouraged. This version is not possible to install some additional packages of pfSense® and Untangle. - The solution that installs on your hard disk (usually on the UTM Appliance solutions or above) has the ability to save logs in it. On this version, you can install all additional packages provided for pfSense® and Untangle.

4. Network Card Chipset The choice of a network card is essential for anyone who is planning a system for medium / large dimensions. - The Realtek chipset is less powerful than Intel Chipset and is mainly suitable for workloads less intense. However, for a company that does not require high throughputs. - The Intel chipset, on the other hand, offers better performances in heavy traffic: it offers several advanced features such as queue management and, from the 2.2 version of pfSense, it also improved the multi-core support. This means a higher throughput and a reduced load on the CPU.

5. Number Of Users Firewall performance also dependent of number of users behind it, more users more state table entries and more hardware resources required.

* Network Firewall Server has 8x1Gig Electrical Ethernet Ports, and 4x1Gig Optical Ports, above stats are captured by using 6x1Gig for WAN and 6x1Gig For LAN, so total processing capacity calculated based on 6Gig link. ** These are not theoretical stats, these are real world stats, means generated at the time of full system load. You can consider them a minimum level of the number. You will get more than that in your environment.

Note: Server ports are capable of handling more than 95% of hardware limit, like 950-980Mbps per port. Remember that this is real time hardware performance statistics captured during ideal environment. These might be different according to traffic load, complexity of configuration and processor/memory/storage specifications. Most important OS, if OS is more stable and have smaller footprint then performance should be high.
