Firewall Palo Alto Networks PA-1420, full appliance front view

Overview

The PA-1420 combines 4 RJ-45 1 GbE ports, 4 RJ-45 1/2.5/5 GbE ports, 4 RJ-45 1/2.5/5 GbE ports with PoE, 2 SFP 1 GbE ports and 8 SFP/SFP+ 1/10 GbE ports. The manufacturer reports 6.2 Gb/s of Threat Prevention in an appmix test on PAN-OS 12.1. Selection must assess this result alongside concurrent sessions, the application profile and required inspection; it does not guarantee performance on every network. 1U rack integration with 8 × 10 GbE uplinks and PoE for the enterprise edge. Transceivers, subscriptions and support are specified for the project. Security subscriptions and optional features are not assumed to be included with the appliance. Validate the licence, version and configuration.
