It provides for non-blocking (L7) payloads ie; voice, video, data, you name it. The processors scale so as your application needs get turned up and new ones come into play, this puppy can handle it all! (it is not a band aid SLB like some of the lower end systems) It is aggressively priced as it does not have the $$ overhead as the F5, Cisco and Juniper with all of their functionality but it is not a "cheap" just only SLB like some of the low end systems out there.
