Maximum Configuration Values

Maximum Configuration Values

Maximum configuration objects - hardware models and Maximum configuration objects - virtual appliances show the maximum number of configuration objects by hardware or VM model. For more information specific to your FortiADC appliance, refer to your model’s QuickStart Guide or Datasheet.

Note: The maximum number of Layer-7 virtual servers that each model supports varies, depending on the available system memory and the number of features enabled on the unit.

Maximum configuration values when HW SSL acceleration is enabled

Maximum configuration values - hardware models when HW SSL acceleration is enabled show the maximum number of configuration objects for hardware models able to support HW SSL acceleration.

The maximum number of processes that a virtual server is able to support can be increased by enabling HW SSL acceleration. This depends on whether the virtual server is enabled for alone mode, and which SSL hardware is supported by each model. For virtual servers enabled for alone mode, each will be handled by a separate httproxy process, whereas multiple virtual servers with alone mode disabled may share a single process. This may allow the number of virtual servers disabled for alone mode be unlimited for a virtual domain for when HW SSL acceleration is enabled.

For models that support HW SSL acceleration, they will either be compatible with the Cavium SSL or QAT SSL. For models using QAT SSL, the maximum number of processes depends on whether polling or epoll mode is enabled. Polling mode allows for four times the number of processes than epoll mode, however, epoll mode is higher performing. For models using Cavium SSL, there are no restrictions on the number of processes.

Note: Since the 6.2.0 release, the default mode for QAT SSL has been changed to polling.
