For my own reference please ..
The role of a firewall is supposed to be a filter rather than a router
or a front end load balancer? If there is this much inbound traffic
clearly other solutions would be appropriate? Or am I wrong?
If you are an ISP, 50000 states isn't much.
It's not only web-sessions, but also DNS-queries (Hello (SU)RBLs, Hello
Spamassassin...) and inbound/outbound mail.
Especially NAT can kill a router quickly, if it is underspec'ed.
