I have approximately 2 million hits a day on web pages behind a pair of PIX
515's in failover and send out a little more than a million subscription
(not spam) email's every night and the only issue I have is that the
available 1550 (Ethernet) blocks drops to zero at times during the 3 or 4
hours i
These are TCP and UDP connections. Keep in mind that PIX must keep a state
table for these connections so thats probably where it gets the limit from.
I really can't see how you could have 2 million users internally going
through 1 firewall so I assume you mean 2 million people hitting a webserver
I believe that if you check the Cisco website or documentation, you will see
that it defines a session as a single TCP or UDP connection. If somehow you
had 2M users, yet their total number of sessions never exceeded 500K, then
your firewall could handle 2M users. I am not addressing performance
