Sizing base on bandwidth for Cloud Guard Network Security

[Mk_83]

Hello everyone,

I have a customer want to using Checkpoint in their Private Cloud (KVM Environment) - Cluster HA (Active/Standby)

- Physical Network: 2x 10Gbps

- Physical Host running VM Firewall: Chip 6448Y

- Blade FW only.

- Throughput ~ 40Gbs

I am planning to this license:

CPSG-VSEC-VEN-BUN-NGTP-*Y

1 CloudGuard Network virtual core for VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, KVM Gateway. Annual subscription for * year.

I tested 16 vCore => overload. 
So, I just want to ask that with that such traffic/throughput, can 32 vCore handle it?

I hope anyone who have experience in this can help and give me your opinion, before I'm doing another test with 32 vCore.

Thanks & Best Regards.

In general I would suggest working with your local Check Point SE / rep on this who can engage solution center where required.

What throughput did you see with the 16-cores?

Likely we are missing some details but the networking seems not to align with the throughput requirements?

Are there any online sizing tools to feed the results of cpsizeme to?

Appliance Sizing Tool should be available to partners as I recall but its not entirely applicable here.
