The general HTTP or FTP benchmarkers may not� be useful for
firewall benchmark. It is better to use an integrated workload and
concern ftp, http and smtp together.
For example the tool must be configurable to generate 70% http,
20% ftp and 10% smtp. and other parameters such as number of
connections per second, number of simultaneous
connections, authentication,� ...
Also, is there any standard distribution for workload?
Very thanks,
