This offering includes a Dual Unit Palo Alto Networks PA-220 Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) Appliance in Rackmount (P/N: 520-000309-00G for the rackmount, PA-220 for each appliance, and potentially 750-000128-00C as an additional component or kit part number). The PA-220 is an entry-level enterprise-grade firewall that brings powerful threat prevention and advanced security features to small to medium businesses, distributed enterprises, and branch offices. By housing two PA-220 appliances in a single rackmount unit, this configuration provides enhanced redundancy (Active/Passive or Active/Active clustering), increased throughput, or the ability to manage separate security domains from a consolidated footprint. Each PA-220 delivers comprehensive network visibility, granular policy control, and protection against known and unknown cyber threats, powered by Palo Alto Networks' innovative single-pass architecture.
