Throughput rates are determined using multiple flows through multiple ports and will vary depending on the environment and configuration. Max firewall throughput tested via direct connection using 1518-byte UDP frames based on RFC 2544 methodology, on Fireware 2025.1.
UTM throughput is measured using HTTP traffic with AV, IPS and Application Control enabled, and does not account for all security services available on the appliance.
The datasheet lists proxy concurrent connections as 3,850,000, the same as the total figure. Reproduced as published — worth confirming before sizing a proxy-heavy deployment.
Part numbers are WatchGuard catalogue SKUs and are listed for reference. Availability and lead time are confirmed at quote.
