SSL VPN Maximum Simultaneous Users

[SecurityPlus]

We have a customer with a FortiGate 60E firewall. They now have a hand full of SSL VPN users who use the VPN. They are using the free version of FortiClient. They use the VPN to access file on a file server. They have two WAN connections, each about 200Mb down and 20 Mb up. How many users do you think that this firewall will support simultaneously?

SSL VPN throughput on the 60E is 150Mbps, and recommended maximum concurrent users are 200 as per the data sheet on the 60E

(The 200 user limit is not a set limit, so you can have more but I would keep it under 200)

And throughput would drop if you enable IPS and SSL inspection as well
