Re: [FW-1] [FW1] Nokia: Should I buy IP530 or IP650

[Raymond N]

I got some useful info from Nokia pre-sales support. I attach info from that support guy below, incase someone in this mailing list also has similar questions...

----------------------
1. Gigabit ethernet cards are available and fully supported in the
IP530, IP650 and IP740
2. The IP530, IP650 and IP740 fully support unlimited-IP-address Check
Point licenses.
3. The IP530, IP650 and IP740 all support in excess of 100,000
concurrent connections.
4. The throughput of each box is as follows IP650 - 350 Mbps, IP530 -
500 Mbps, IP740 - 2000 Mbps (2 Gbps). These numbers are obtained with
100 firewall rules, and traffic matching the 101 st.
