The Palo Alto Networks PA-500 is targeted at high speed Internet gateway deployments for enterprise branch offices and medium size businesses. The PA-500 manages network traffic flows using dedicated computing resources for networking, security, threat prevention and management.
A high speed backplane smoothes the pathway between processors and the separation of data and control plane ensures that management access is always available, irrespective of the traffic load. The controlling element of the PA-500 next-generation firewalls is PAN-OS, a security-specific operating system that tightly integrates three unique identification technologies: App-ID, User-ID and Content-ID, with key firewall, networking and management features.
