Mid-size enterprise firewall
The SonicWall NSa 2800 is a rack-mountable firewall appliance built for mid-size and distributed enterprises. It delivers 8 Gbps firewall inspection throughput and 6 Gbps threat prevention throughput with deep packet inspection services including gateway anti-virus, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention and TLS decryption. The bundled 3-year Advanced Protection Security Suite adds cloud-based reporting and comprehensive security services for encrypted and unencrypted traffic.
Verify rack space power and licensing needs
Confirm that a standard 19-inch rack has 43 x 32.5 x 4.5 cm of clearance and that the 100-240 VAC, 4A power input matches the facility supply with a 52.8W maximum draw. Ensure the 40,000 maximum user count and 2,000,000 simultaneous session capacity align with network size. The appliance includes two SSL VPN licenses expandable to 500 and 50 IPSec VPN clients expandable to 1,000, so validate remote access requirements before deployment.
Integrates into high-density 10 GbE networks
The unit fits into environments needing high port density with 10 GbE connectivity for flexible network segmentation. It supports site-to-site VPN tunnels up to 2,000 and route-based VPN with RIP, OSPF and BGP for dynamic routing. Encryption standards cover DES, 3DES and AES at 128, 192 and 256-bit with Suite B cryptography. Compliance certifications include FCC Class A, CE, UL and other international marks for regulated deployments.

Questions about this item
Does the 03-SSC-4689 appliance ship with rack-mount brackets or must they be purchased separately?
The unit is rack mountable by design; brackets are typically included for standard 19-inch rack installation.
The SKU lists a 3-year Advanced Protection bundle plus 1 year CSE — what happens after those periods end?
After three years the Advanced Protection services require renewal; the CSE (Customer Support Entitlement) covers the first year and must also be extended to retain firmware updates and technical support.
In a live network the spec shows 8 Gbps firewall throughput — will encrypted traffic run at that rate?
Encrypted traffic is inspected at the TLS/SSL decryption throughput of 6 Gbps, so enabling full decryption reduces the effective rate to that figure.
