Abstract:
   This document provides benchmarking terminology and methodology for
   next-generation network security devices including next-generation
   firewalls (NGFW) and next-generation intrusion prevention systems
   (NGIPS).  The main areas covered in this document are test
   terminology, test configuration parameters, and benchmarking
   methodology for NGFW and NGIPS.  (It is assumed that readers have a
   working knowledge of these devices and the security functionality
   they contain.)  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.  As a result, this document
   makes RFC3511 obsolete.
