[j-nsp] Best device to fit for a project

[Ben Dale]

Check out AutoVPN as well:

It's hub-and-spoke (as opposed to full-mesh) and a little simpler than GDOI, but you do take the overhead of having to managing PKI across your fleet.

Will not handle 100Mbps IPsec, but will do 10 Mbps easily, perhaps 50 Mbps depending on how you count and configure (50 bidir is actually 100 in processing power etc). None of the branch SRX have crypto chip, all IPsec is done in CPU, have to watch that.

If you can do without the RPS, then I'd go with either an SRX220 or 240, which will easily handle the remainder of your requirements.
