Who Me Too'd this topic

I am trying to get my head around device throughput maximums. As an example the 3020 is speced as such:

• 2 Gbps firewall throughput
  (App-ID enabled1)
• 1 Gbps threat prevention throughput
• 500 Mbps IPSec VPN throughput

Are these throughputs simultaneous? In other words, can I have 2Gbps of Firewall through put and 500Mpbs of IPsec traffic, or if I have 500Mbps of IPsec traffic, am essentially depleted at that point?

The onset of more affordable high bandwidth is starting to cause concerns for some of our exisitng deployment; as well there is more need to have strict DMZ deployments where internal to server zone policies could see pretty heavy bandwidth demands.

Any thoughts or experience would be appreicated.
