Subject: RE: [fw-wiz] Firewall Throughput
[snip]
The NS1000 specifications are as follows...these are the 
industry standards
in FW Throughput.

Ø 1Gb/s stateful-inspection NAT firewall
Ø 1Gb/s 3DES VPN
[snip]

Buh?!

You'll forgive me for being sceptical, but that's a _lot_ of 3DES
throughput.

Can anyone back this up with independant test results, or even the packet
sizes used in testing?

Cheers,
