The UTM is meant for small and mid-sized enterprises. Like cyberoam UTM this device provides high availability which makes it ideal to deploy in mission critical systems. It also provides bandwidth management, with which you can prioritize your traffic, allocate bandwidth, etc. Unlike the USG 200, it doesn't have anti-spam built into it. Compared to USG 200, it has fewer virus signatures. In our tests, it performed well compared to others. Initially we tested it for its anti-virus capabilities. It didn't block most of the viruses, especially the macro viruses.

But it blocked all the live or active viruses which we had. Like all the UTMs in the shootout, it blocked the eicar test virus also. It consists of 3200 virus signatures whereas, the USG 200 consists of 8200. The concept behind it is to increase the performance of the device. Next we tried the port jamming attack which was successful!. Then we tried the Arpspoof attack which this device failed to detect. Also the device successfully detected and logged.
