PA-5450 Performance and Capacities
Palo Alto Networks PA-5450 Next-Generation Firewalls enable enterprise-scale organizations and service providers to deploy security in high-performance environments, such as large data centers and high-bandwidth network perimeters. Designed to handle growing throughput needs for application-, user-, and device-generated data, these systems offer amazing performance, prevention capabilities to stop the most advanced cyberattacks, and high-throughput decryption to stop threats hiding under the veil of encryption. Built to maximize security-processing resource utilization and automatically scale as new computing power becomes available, the PA-5450 offers simplicity defined by a single-system approach to management and licensing.
PA-5450 Architecture
The PA-5450 is powered by a scalable architecture for the purpose of applying the appropriate type and volume of processing power to the key functional tasks of networking, security, and management. The PA-5450 chassis intelligently distributes processing demands across three subsystems, each with massive amounts of computing power and dedicated memory.
Network Processing Card
The Network Processing Card (NPC) is dedicated to executing all packet-processing tasks, including networking, traffic classification, and threat prevention. Each NPC has between 64 (first generation) and 144 (second generation) processing cores, all focused on protecting your network at up to 70 Gbps per NPC. Scaling the throughput to the maximum 700 Gbps on the PA-7080, or 420 Gbps on the PA-7050, is as easy as adding a new NPC and allowing the system to determine the best use of the new processing power. To address growing demand for higher-capacity 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps connectivity
