The Sophos XGS 128 is designed for small to medium-sized businesses and can support around 200-300 users under average usage conditions. This model has more processing power and capacity than the XGS 108 and XGS 118 series, allowing it to handle larger user bases effectively. However, the actual user capacity will vary depending on:
- Network Load: High-bandwidth applications (like cloud services, VoIP, and video streaming) will impact the number of users it can support effectively.
- Enabled Security Features: Resource-intensive features, such as SSL/TLS inspection, sandboxing, or advanced threat protection, can reduce the number of users the firewall can support, as these features require additional processing power.
- Concurrent Connections: The XGS 128 has a high concurrent connection limit, making it more suitable for environments with significant network traffic or where many devices connect simultaneously.
