Throughput calculation

miguel.rodas — Mon, 30 Dec 2019 12:10:28 GMT

Hello ,

Can someone know how to calculate manually the FW Throughput ?

it's for a PA 5060 with multiple Vsys and 1 etherchannel to the external network and another one for internal servers.

Command 'show system statistics session' display a low value in comparison of snmp BW value graphs

how system statistics sessions > Throughput :133965 Kbps

here the IN OUT traffic for Ingress and Egress .

external Network ---- 250 Mbps IN /OUT ------ FW PA5060 ------400 Mbps IN / OUT ----- DC Servers

Could you please explain how the thoughput is calculated ?

Thanks

Hi kiwi ,

thanks for the web link but i would like to know how the throughput is calculated for FW .

On spreadsheet the throughput value ( without ThreatP ) = 20 Gbs

In order to calculate manually i have to add all receive or transmit interfaces traffic ?

Yes.

Alternatively, you can reach out to your local SE and have him add your vote to feature request #1184.
