Netgate-4200-Description

The Netgate® 4200 with pfSense® Plus software is the most versatile security gateway in its class. The 4200 utilizes the blazing fast performance of 4-core Intel® Atom® C1110 CPU to achieve benchmark results up to three times faster in routing, firewall forwarding and IPsec VPN than the previous generation of security gateways. The 4200 delivers over 9.2 Gbps of L3 routing across four independent 2.5 GbE flexible WAN/LAN ports. 

Netgate-4200-Performance

Hardware Comparison Chart


The Netgate 4200 is ideal for pro-home, small/medium businesses, branch and edge deployments that require flexible port configurations to support 1 to 2.5 Gbps WAN capabilities across four discrete, unswitched 2.5 Gbps RJ-45 ethernet LAN ports - all in a silent desktop form factor.

L3 Forwarding
(Router)

  • IPERF3 Traffic: 8.75 Gbps
  • IMIX Traffic: 9.28 Gbps

Firewall
(10k ACLs)

  • IPERF3 Traffic: 8.61 Gbps
  • IMIX Traffic: 3.21 Gbps

IPsec VPN
(AES-GCM-128 w/AES-NI)

  • IPERF3 Traffic: 3.2 Gbps
  • IMIX Traffic: 1.05 Gbps

Netgate 4200 performance tests conducted with pfSense Plus software version 23.09.1

Netgate-4200-Specifications

CPU: Intel Atom C1110 with AVX2, 4-core @ 2.1 GHz. Delivers up to 3x on benchmarking results for routing, firewall and IPsec VPN versus the Netgate 4100.

Network Ports: Four 2.5G independent and configurable RJ45 LAN ports for maximum flexibility. Configure it for single or dual WAN, or high-availability failover. 

Storage: 16 GB eMMC 

Memory: 4 GB LPDDR5 RAM. DDR5 memory allows more stable, higher transfer rates for memory-intensive applications (e.g. IDS/IPS). 

Cooling: The passive cooling system and low power draw of the Netgate 4200 provides efficient thermal management and silent operation expected from smaller devices despite its significantly higher performance.

Netgate-5100-Software

pfSense Plus software provides the performance, flexibility, reliability and business assurance expected from leading secure networking applications:

  • Up to 10 Gbps performance
  • Flexible 3rd-party application options
  • Traditional management mechanisms
  • Proven reliability
