Hi Jesper,
"wire speed" might be a problem. From numbers I've seen, the ISA Firewall tops
out at about 1.5 Gbps.
Of course, that could be a limitation of the testing enviroment, but I don't
know what their besting environment was like, so I can't say.

He Everyone,
Does anyone have an idea for creating a ISA Server 2006 EE using 10Gb
Adapters...
My customer have the following requirements:
- ISA Server 2006 EE (Array)
- 3 x 10 Gb Interfaces Internal1, Internal2 and External (Would be
upgraded to 40 and 100 Gb doing 2008!)
- Must deliver "Wire Speed"
- Route between Internal1 and Internal 2 <> External
My Questions to this configuration:
- What kind of Server could handle this setup? HP 580 ?
- How many ISA Servers should we place in the Array (2, 4 or more?)
- Number of CPU´s and kinds ?
- where will the bottlenecks be ? (The PCI bus ???)
Thanks
Jesper Hanno
