Perfomance on PA 4060 - Huge Disappointment

L3 Networker

We are having a poc at an ISP with a 4060 . It is a huge disppointment performance wise . We are seeing very high dataplane utilization on very small sessions. 50% on 220,000 sessions. 38% on 149,000 sessions. This is a box that is supposedly can handle 2M sessions .

Palo Alto is claiming there is nothing wrong with the unit as it is performing as expected based on the traffic . I thought PAN isn't a UTM . It is looking more like one to me .

Our 4050 will literally run at 100% Dataplane CPU for hours... with 200-300k sessions... so far we have a ticket open but it's attributed to a "bug"...  we can't get a straight answer out of Palo Alto...

Probably a bug . The boxes were upgraded to 4.1.2 .
