Abstract:
   This document provides benchmarking terminology and methodology for
   next-generation network security devices including next-generation
   firewalls (NGFW), next-generation intrusion prevention systems
   (NGIPS), and unified threat management (UTM) implementations.  This
   document aims to improve the applicability, reproducibility, and
   transparency of benchmarks and to align the test methodology with
   today's increasingly complex layer 7 security centric network
   application use cases.  The main areas covered in this document are
   test terminology, test configuration parameters, and benchmarking
   methodology for NGFW and NGIPS.
