## Summary description

The WatchGuard Firebox M290 is a hardware firewall designed for network perimeter security in small to medium environments. It delivers firewall throughput up to 1.18 Gbit/s, UDP (1518) throughput up to 5.8 Gbit/s and VPN (IMIX) throughput up to 800 Mbit/s. MTBF is 623087 hours. Supports networking standards such as IEEE 802.11ad and IEEE 802.1Q, routing protocols BGP, OSPF and RIP, and security features including HTTPS, SNMPv2/v3 and content filtering (Browser Safe Search, Google for Business). Suitable for securing Internet access, site-to-site VPNs and traffic segmentation.

## Long description

Enterprise-grade security designed for small and midsize businesses. The Firebox M290 and M390 firewall appliances provide layered protection against modern cyberattacks, offering unified controls for URL filtering, intrusion prevention, application control and ransomware prevention. The appliances support modular expansion for additional network ports and integrate with WatchGuard Cloud for centralized visibility, reporting and management.
Advantages
The Firebox M290 and M390 deliver comprehensive security comparable to solutions used by larger organizations while remaining suitable for smaller IT teams. Tight integration with AuthPoint enables multi-factor authentication directly on the firewall, removing the need for separate RADIUS infrastructure. WatchGuard Cloud provides 100+ dashboards and reports for rapid insight into trends and anomalies. RapidDeploy simplifies remote deployment by automatically downloading the correct configuration from the Cloud when the appliance is powered up.
Key specifications
Throughput (maximum): up to 18 Gbps with firewall-only configuration
Throughput with all security services enabled: up to 2.4 Gbps
Firewall throughput (measured): 1180 Mbit/s
Mean time between failures (MTBF): 623087 h
Ethernet LAN speeds: 10/100/1000 Mbit/s
Modular expansion: one open module bay supporting options such as 4 × 1 Gb copper, 4 × 1 SFP, 2 × 1 SFP+ or 4-port multispeed modules
How to use
Install the Firebox appliance at the network perimeter and connect required network cables. Power on the device and, if deploying remotely, allow RapidDeploy to connect to the Internet so the appliance can download its configuration from WatchGuard Cloud. Configure security services, user policies and integrate AuthPoint if multi-factor authentication is required. Monitor the network and review WatchGuard Cloud dashboards and reports to adjust settings and respond to incidents as needed.
Recommendations
Use the modular expansion bay to match port density to current network needs while preserving the option to upgrade in the future. Enable the full suite of security services in production environments and use WatchGuard Cloud dashboards for continuous monitoring. For secure remote access, integrate AuthPoint MFA through the Firebox rather than deploying a separate RADIUS server.
