Review on Firewall Network Appliance SSD(Charm NiuGuy by David Carter

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not bad, but not for me

The product worked and was easy to set up. There was a strange problem with hypervisors initially reinstalling LAN and WAN. After the first loading it was possible to change interfaces. However, performance isn't as good if you're doing anything other than forwarding traffic. Once you start inspecting traffic, filtering it, and applying your own rules with port forwarding, it quickly slows down. I couldn't surpass 95Mbps with very reasonable settings enabled. We have an 800Mbps connection, so dropping to 90-100Mbps is just not acceptable. It's not really the product's fault, it just can't handle the load. I think if you want to run basic PFS or OPS you should be fine.
