Which Hardware as Router only?

Hi all,

I need a fast router for a Gigabit WAN Connection. The firewall speed of the ASG 120 is stated with 1,8Gbit/s so this should be enough. The connection will be used by 60 clients and 15 servers. I think the 1Gbit/s will be fully used from time to time. I will not set any firewall rules (allow any any), so routing only is the target.

Can anybody tell me if the ASG 120 should be enough? Or should I buy a ASG220?

Additionaly I need the ability to set static routes - is this possible with the free Version of ASG? No more features will be necessary, so I would buy the hardware only without any subscriptions.

Thank you

Hi Tom,

To be clear, the 1.8Gbit/s of the ASG 120 Rev4 is not a theoretical number; it is achieved in our testing labs, however it would be unlikely you could exceed this figure, and it would be for pure Firewalling only - other load would affect it.

My ASG 120 Rev4 runs with 2x100Mb lines that I frequently fully max with downloading, and it works just fine during those times. I use also all services except for Mail Filtering and WebApp Firewall.

A 220 would meet your goals as outlined easily enough.
