IDS: IDS\IPS that can handle one Gig

["Brian Blankenship" <security () packetinfo net>]

Randall,

The UnityOne-1200's we purchased from TippingPoint are working out well for 
us. We have four units, each has four gig fiber segments. I don't know what 
the max aggregate has been, based upon traffic research prior to install it 
should be in the 600-1000Mbps range.   No problems with throughput.

Greetings,

We are currently evaluating IDS\IPS vendors. We have tried two vendors, whom
I will not name unless you ask me, that have made claims that they can
handle a Gig of through put but actually start to fail around the 300-500MB
range.

Could anyone share a success story of a vendor they are using that is
handling this type of traffic?

Thanks in advance,

-RGJ
