Firewall firewall throughput explained calculation
I am planning to replace old firewall, then it comes to firewall throughput, I am not sure whether I get a correct figures, so wanna ask expert here, here is the information
Interface
WAN 1 - 10Mb Broadband
WAN 2 - 2Mb MPLS
DMZ 1 - 100Mb to internal switch
Internal 1 - 100Mb to internal switch
Internal 2 - 100Mb to internal switch
Internal 3 - 100Mb to internal switch
Internal 4 - 100Mb to internal switch
Internal 5 - 100Mb to internal switch
So for traffic in and out, which is
10Mb x 2 + 2Mb x 2 + 600Mb internal x 2
= Total firewall throughput I need is around 1.3Gb say in 64 byte UDP packet.
Am I correct?
Thanks for help.

Honestly I am a bit lost, I will only have the AV and IPS applied on all those interface that need internet surfing, so the 100D have 700Mbps in flowbased and 950Mb on IPS, so should i assume it is enough since i only have 10Mb for a WAN link?
I think I need to call vendor to ask, but before that just want to ask experts here for more information.

Firewall Throughput
(1518/512/64 byte UDP)
2500 / 1000 / 200 Mbps
I am thinking whether my estimation is on the right track.
Thanks
