What is the maximum number of devices that can be managed under the NSM Architecture?

The maximum number of devices that can be managed under the NSM (Network Security Manager) Architecture is 10,000. This capacity ensures that organizations can effectively scale their network security management without overwhelming the system. The NSM is designed to provide centralized management, allowing administrators to monitor, configure, and analyze security events across numerous devices from a single platform.

This scalability is crucial for medium to large enterprises that may have diverse network environments with a large number of security appliances, such as firewalls and intrusion prevention systems. Being able to manage up to 10,000 devices means that NSM can accommodate extensive infrastructures, thereby ensuring that organizations can maintain a robust security posture as they grow and integrate more devices into their networks.
