How many firewall sessions per user




















The clustering implementation is perhaps the biggest difference the between series and other FortiGate platforms. In most cases, the FortiController provides connectivity for the entire cluster. The Controller balances new and existing sessions to the correct blade. This arrangement puts a fully populated series chassis in the terabit-class of Firewalls. However, when dealing with millions of concurrent sessions some interesting statistics float to the top.

With a sample size of millions, the average concurrent sessions per device drops to three. When calculating session counts in the enterprise, we would normally use a multiplication factor of per host. However, in the mobile era, concurrency is actually much lower. This can be attributed to the move away from client-server applications that use multiple open connections such as SMB and Exchange towards web-enabled applications that have a greater number of short-lived connections.

While individual applications may use a lot of data, the apps used by millions of users concurrently such as Facebook, Twitter, Mobile Mail clients, and most mobile browsers are highly optimized for pay-by-byte metered connections. Billions of tiny application status updates have driven down the average packet size. However, smaller packets create a greater overhead on state-aware devices such as firewalls.

This is why firewall throughput data provided is often based on the ideal i. While a GIF of a cat will fill many packets, such transactions are comparatively rare. Regardless of address reuse, the local listening port is exclusive even if there are multiple IP on the server side, so only remote IP i.

The above is given the theoretical maximum number of single-machine connections, in the actual environment, by machine resources, operating system and other limitations, especially the sever side, its maximum concurrent tcp connection number is far from reaching the theoretical upper limit. Maximum TCP connections depends on several factors of our Windows server, it's hard to say an accurate number. You should first save a backup of the registry. Start the Registry Editor. Please note: You must restart your computer for this change to take effect.

Reducing this setting will increase the maximum connection limit.

HI Sorry for the late reply I have tried the answer, But still the server performance is not incresed. It always stuck on the user connection reaches between and , is it possible to allow concurrent connections to server or it depends on the DB performance.

I would use two pieces of equipment: a Cisco ASA for the router part and I would add as many Apple Airport Extremes as you need to handle the traffic and the area that you are expecting for your church activities you can easily create an extended service set, ESS, if necessary, with Airport Extremes. The Cisco ASA has good throughput and monitoring functionality.

You can get an ASA with a Security Module A Security License and a choice of two different types of add on modules to facilitate specific monitoring needs. The Apple Airports are a good match for any wireless device, especially the iPads and iPhones. Airport Extremes are a good temporary solution while you work up money or find investors but they can't mesh like a fully deployed wireless solution.

I am working with a catholic school now who started having some problems with Airport Expresses and just moved to a bunch of Cisco APs.

It all depends on budget and what exactly that money has to accomplish for you, firewall and content filtering included. We just had our Airport Extreme die over the weekend.

WAN port just crapped out. They are pricey for what they are and horrible to manage. We moved to a less expensive Netgear ProSafe AP and find it more powerful and far easier to manage no special software. To continue this discussion, please ask a new question. Get answers from your peers along with millions of IT pros who visit Spiceworks. What's the firewall on a budget that can handle that kind of device load? Best Answer.

Good question, and the answer is "It depends". You'll get a wide variety of answers. So the best indicator would be 'what are you doing currently'? So, what's your current and expected load? Don't forget to ask for a non-profit discount.
