We currently have a Watchguard XTM 515 and our sister company has a Checkpoint 4600 that they really like. And they are keen to move to a newer & larger device from Checkpoint. VPN management & traffic rules are key to them. It would be better on the long run if we all standardize on the same platform so I was thinking of going checkpoint as well.
We currently have a 600mb connection (around 100 users) and will be bumping it to a 1GB soon enough.
The Checkpoint 5100 is in our budget range, but the Data sheet on that model lists both "Ideal Testing conditions" and "Real World". Big difference between the two. (speed of 1.34gb vs 250mb with Threat prevention enabled).
I currently have around 70 rules, IPS, and Web/Content Filtering enabled on the Watchguard (but no antivirus/apt sandbox etc). Would the Checkpoint 5100 be able to handle a similar config on a 1gb connection without choking?
