I have my strong doubts about this box. It seems to choke with very
little traffic for something Checkpoint rates as 400Mbs as I recall.
I've been doing a smart defense update and it has been running for over
an hour so far. I expect it to take another hour before it is finished.
The cpu as reported by the smart view monitor has stayed about 95% or
higher. The traffic during this has been:
Though put 150k to 300k bytes/second
Accepted packet rate 175 to 300 packet/second
New connections rate 1 to 5 /second
Concurrent Connections 200 to 300 / second
No VPN traffic at this time, just an office of <20 pc's and the usual
email and web browser traffic. Most of the smart defense, content
protection and antivirus is turned on.
To me, these traffic number don't seem very high yet the box seems to be
on it's knees. So I'm interested in what others see which their systems.
It has a 600Mhz Pentium-M CPU. What do you expect from that ? ;))
These boxes have highly overrated specifications in the datasheet.
A 570 with AV for e-mail/http and antispam enabled with no VPN crumbles
at around ~ 12Mbps...
