Desktop ML-powered firewall for small sites

The Palo Alto Networks PA-450 is a desktop next-generation firewall that delivers 3.3 Gbps firewall throughput and 2.1 Gbps threat-prevention throughput. It supports up to 300,000 concurrent sessions and 48,000 new sessions per second. The appliance includes eight 1 GbE RJ45 ports and a dedicated management interface.

Suits branch offices needing integrated SD-WAN

This model fits locations that require App-ID, User-ID, WildFire and SSL decryption in a 41.3 W desktop form factor. Buyers who need higher throughput, more than five virtual systems, or multi-gigabit interfaces should evaluate larger platforms.

Eight 1 GbE RJ45 ports define the connectivity limit

The fixed I/O provides eight copper Ethernet ports plus one out-of-band management port, one RJ45 console, one micro-USB console and two USB ports. No expansion slots or SFP cages are present, so uplink speed and port density cannot be increased.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the PA-450 is processing traffic at the rated 3.3 Gbps firewall throughput after installation?

Monitor the dashboard in the web interface or Panorama for real-time throughput graphs and session counters; sustained app-mix traffic near 3.3 Gbps with CPU utilisation below capacity confirms expected performance.

What cables, licences or accessories must I purchase separately to operate the PA-450 out of the box?

The appliance ships with a power cord, console cable and rack-mount brackets; you must acquire a PAN-OS software licence subscription and any required Premium support or WildFire subscriptions separately.

Which PA-400 series model should I choose if I need 8 x 1G RJ45 ports and up to 300,000 concurrent sessions?

The PA-450 provides exactly eight 1G RJ45 data ports, a dedicated management port, console ports, USB ports and supports 300,000 concurrent sessions with 3.3 Gbps firewall throughput.
