Internet traffic is increasing at a rate that quickly makes single-box solutions inadequate to meet the demand for secure connections. To meet the demand for both security and throughput, architects have turned to clustered solutions, which combine the capabilities of several independent devices into a single virtual device. Clustered solutions meet the immediate needs for high-throughput security gateways, while protecting the investment in security solutions by enabling currently deployed solutions to scale to the needs of tomorrow. This paper describes a cluster architecture referred to as the "Symmetric Security Core Cluster" within Nokia.
