[netperf-talk] Concurrent connections

[Yash Khanduri]

Hello All,

I have seen different firewall website and most of them shows three values regarding the performance of a firewall:-

Firewall Throughput 100 Mbps 100 Mbps 100 Mbps 
VPN Throughput 35 Mbps 35 Mbps 35 Mbps 
Concurrent Sessions 10,000 8,000 6,000 

1) Firewall and VPN throughput, are these the values related to only TCP data or does it also include UDP throughput. Because, in my testing I was getting TCP throughput values more nearer to above mentioned results.

2) "Concurrent Sessions" is it showing the connections related to a complete TCP session (Three way Handshake) and is there a way to test it through netperf?

Regards
Yash
