Are you sure you meant 1.2 GB/s ?
That would be 9.6 Gbit/s (as in 9600 Mbit/s)
These don't route that much.
With the built in Realtek cards you get 450 Mbit/s without any fancy rules.
I would expect this to go down with additional rules.
With intel cards on the same board you can get up to 650 Mbit/s, but i
expect it to be lower with additional rules.
The strength of this board isn't, that it performs very fast, but that
it performs reasonably well without taking too much power.
You can expect power consumation of below 10W without additional cards
in the PCIe slots.
My brain burp. 1.2 MB/s. Duh.
It should do fine, then! My added rules are short/sweet--designed to
trash my gaming kids outside of reasonable hours. 5 or 6 of those to
manaage the week, cron package to manage killing states on the back end.
I might aim for one to use at my school in a computational lab I'd like
to set up (isolating the room from everything, if that's deemed
necessary). They are certainly higher in throughput, but most outside
access wouldn't need too high of a rate.
