Zyxel USG Flex 100HP hardware-firewall 3 Gbit/s

The Zyxel USG Flex 100HP hardware firewall provides enterprise-grade multi-layer protection with multi-gig performance and PoE+ capability. Designed for environments that need high firewall/UTM/VPN throughput, it delivers 3 Gbit/s firewall throughput, 750 Mbit/s VPN throughput (IKEv2/IPSec/SSL) and 1.5 Gbit/s IPS/IDS throughput while offering reliable operation with an MTBF of over 550,000 hours. Integrated with Zyxel AI cloud and Nebula cloud management, the USG Flex 100HP supports centralized visibility, automated response and simplified remote deployment for distributed networks.

Advantages

The Zyxel USG Flex 100HP combines high throughput and multi-layered security services to protect against modern threats without compromising performance. Nebula integration enables centralized management and automated threat containment across connected devices, while collaborative threat intelligence increases detection accuracy. Secure WiFi tunnelling and DNS content filtering reduce blind spots in encrypted traffic. The device includes PoE+ interfaces and a compact, energy-efficient design with maximum power consumption of 51.2 W.

Suitable for

• Small and medium branch offices requiring multi-gig firewall and VPN performance
• Distributed or remote workplaces needing centralized management and secure WiFi access
• Networks that require IPS/IDS and UTM features with threat intelligence integration

How to use

Install the Zyxel USG Flex 100HP in your network rack or on a stable surface and connect the WAN and LAN interfaces according to your network design. Use the Nebula cloud management platform for initial deployment, policy configuration and ongoing monitoring. Enable the required UTM Security Pack or Secure WiFi licenses to activate advanced features such as DNS content filtering, TLS 1.3 protection without SSL inspection and drop-in secure WiFi tunnels. Configure VPN settings for IKEv2/IPSec/SSL according to remote access or site-to-site requirements.

Recommendations

For full multi-layered protection and automated collaborative defense, register the device with Nebula and enable the UTM Security Pack. Use Secure WiFi license for remote access points that must replicate office SSIDs and tunnel traffic securely. Regularly update threat intelligence feeds and review SecuReporter analytics to maintain optimal detection accuracy.
