I have one of my NG firewalls set to 200,000 simultaneous connections. It averages about 60,000 connections at any given period of time. -- Joe At 10:24 AM 6/10/02, Kenneth Ord wrote: Theoretically I have a single Checkpoint FW-1 box that can handle up to 50,000 concurrent connections, which isn't enough for my network. If I have a second firewall and run it in a load balanced cluster with the existing firewall and they both share state, can I increase the number of concurrent connections I can handle? I assume that since they share state, any connections on one firewall are entered in the state table of the other, so am I limited to 50,000 connections across the entire cluster or is this a performance issue on a single box allowing me to increase the number up to, say, 100,000?
