How to achieve greater than 1Gbps on XGS116

Gabriel Smolnycki

I'm looking to utilize a 2Gbps symmetrical connection on an XGS116. Based on the specs, it should be able to handle 7.7Gbps, or 2.0Gbps with NGFW enabled. I've currently got the upstream CPE connected via a 10Gbps SFP+ module to a CS110-48P on its own isolated VLAN, then a LAG with two cables to the firewall. Yet speed testing with multiple clients seems to be hard limited to 1Gbps.

Shouldn't this be possible? If so, what am I doing wrong?

    Hi,

    Please provide a drawing of your configuration.

    What you are seeing is the advertised specifications for each function of the firewall under ideal conditions, this is an industry standard approach to testing.

    I would be surprised if the XGS116 in a production environment can get much above about 700-800 Mb/s throughput.

    Here's a basic diagram. There are of course more clients, but this shows what I'm trying to do.

    I'm sure the specs are tested under ideal conditions. However, I seem to be hard limited at exactly 1Gbps, with only the default network enabled and all security features turned off. I'm not sure how much more ideal you could get than that. But that being said, somehow it must be possible to route above 1Gbps if they were able to achieve it in testing. I just want to know how that somehow is.

    Hi,

    thank you for the diagram. I suspect a bridge would be better than LAG VLANs?

    My thoughts.
