Firewall sizing.

Before you order

Keep the specification intact. No universal appliance recommendation follows from a staff count alone. Datasheet figures are measured under stated conditions, not a guarantee for every traffic mix.

Ordering questions

Is the same headline Gbps figure comparable across firewall vendors?

Not automatically. Identify the security features enabled, traffic mix and test conditions behind each metric. Request comparable inspected workloads and state any differences beside the proposal. Do not treat plain firewall throughput and threat-protection throughput as the same measurement.

What should I send for an office firewall quote in India?

Send the site and delivery location, internet circuits, expected and measured traffic, users and sessions, VPN needs, inspection policy, interface requirements and growth. State new purchase or renewal, the required subscription scope, support and term, and any existing model that constrains the proposal.
