@jonathanlee said in SG2100 wan speed:
It should handle this
Mmmm... it's not going to do 964 Mbps from the Internet. Some of the tests are run without NAT, without firewall, etc. At some point Netgate used to have the test info, and it may still be somewhere but I don't know it offhand.
Usually I estimate about halfway between the "firewall" speeds on the product page:
IPERF3 Traffic: 964 Mbps
IMIX Traffic: 249 Mbps
I haven't maxed out a 2100 yet. I just did a rather unscientific test using a speed test from my eero (bridged through pfSense; my PC isn't wired) that got around 65-70% CPU usage at 430 Mbps down mid-day. That's without Suricata/Snort.
We had a client with an older 2440 model I think it was that hit 95-100% CPU usage, with Suricata enabled, around 350 Mbps as I recall.
