Abstract
A10 Networks, Inc. commissioned The Tolly Group to evaluate the AX 3200 Advanced Traffic Manager, A10’s next generation server load balancer. A10 Networks asked The Tolly Group to test the AX 3200 using the same test methodologies used by F5 Networks in its public performance report.
In January 2008, Tolly Group engineers benchmarked the connection-per-second (cps) rate, transaction-per-second (tps) rate, SYN cookies, and aggregate throughput of the AX 3200 at
Layer 4, Layer 7 plus SSL sessions for five object sizes ranging from 128- to 512K-bytes and for different numbers of HTTP requests per TCP connections. In April 2008, engineers also measured the Layer 7 switching performance with HTTP Caching enabled.
