Product Review

The Palo Alto PAN-PA-3250 offers a solid firewall throughput of 6.3 Gbps and IPsec VPN throughput of 3.2 Gbps, catering to high-demand environments efficiently. However, its threat prevention throughput is limited to 3 Gbps, which may be a bottleneck for networks under heavy attack or those requiring intensive deep packet inspection. On the hardware front, the device supports a wide range of interfaces including (12) 10/100/1000 and (8) 1G/10G SFP/SFP+ ports, along with a 240GB SSD for storage, making it versatile for various network configurations but it occupies 2U rack space, which might be considerable for setups with limited space.
