Trade-Up Firewall Appliance

The WatchGuard WGM29002003 is a firewall appliance supplied as a trade-up to the M290 platform with a three-year Basic Security Suite licence. It targets small-to-medium organisations that need perimeter-to-endpoint protection and cloud-managed visibility without deploying multiple point products.

Security Suite And Cloud Management

The bundled Basic Security Suite activates enterprise-grade prevention, detection, correlation and response across the network. WatchGuard Cloud adds remote monitoring and one-click compliance reports for frameworks such as PCI and HIPAA, reducing the administrative burden of audit preparation.

Eight-Port Copper Connectivity

Eight 1GbE RJ45 ports provide straightforward copper connectivity for LAN, WAN and DMZ segments using standard patch cables. A single expansion slot allows future module additions, while firewall throughput reaches 18 Gbps and sustains 2.4 Gbps with all security services enabled.

Questions about this item

Will the expansion slot on the WGM29002003 need a module added later for more ports?

The appliance includes one total expansion slot; adding a module later is optional and only required if you need additional interfaces beyond the eight built-in 1GbE RJ45 ports.

Which throughput ceiling will be reached first during continuous full‑service inspection on the M290?

With all security services enabled the unit sustains up to 2.4 Gbps throughput, so that inspected‑traffic limit appears before the 2.5 Gbps firewall‑only figure.

What is the typical power draw of the M290 when running all security services around the clock?

The manufacturer highlights up to 18 Gbps firewall throughput and 2.4 Gbps with all services active, but does not publish a specific power‑consumption figure for continuous operation.
