speedhost -> Using ISA 2006 as a Router (replace cisco) (23.Mar.2007 8:16:55 PM)

Hi..
 
we have a couple branch offices have a lan-lan connection to our main office.
 
Today lans are being routed by a cisco switch/router.
 
I want a bit more control over the traffic comming from the branch offices,
so i was wondering if  the isa 2006 can replace a router performance wise ?
 
(I know that adding more security featuers will hurt the performance, but there are of course limits)
 
Thanks.

Hi Speed,

The ISA Firewall has been tested to support over 1.5Gbps for stateful packet inspection. Of course, if you add application layer inspection, it's going to be less.

HTH,
Tom
