When would I likely run into Home use limitations?

The maximum available internet uplink capacity

The capacity of the customer’s internet connection (up- and downlink) should match the average throughput rate that the selected unit is able to forward (depending on the subscriptions in use).

For instance if the download or upload limit is only 20 Mbps then there is no great benefit in using an XG 230 instead of an XG 210, even though the calculated total number of users is around 100. In that case even an XG 210 might be sufficient because it can perfectly fill the complete internet link even with all UTM features enabled.

However, data might not only be filtered on its way to the internet but also between internal network segments. Hence consider internal traffic that traverses the firewall as well in this assessment."
