PR60X
Is the PR60X just a basic firewall? Is there a way to do advanced type of configurations like blocking sites, spam detection, malicious URLs, DOS prevention, etc...?
According to the readily available PR60X product documentation, the Product Data Sheet, and the User Manuals its a pure dual WAN firewall with some VPN capabilities - however not a fully fledged Unified Threat Management (UTM) or the like.

Thank you so much. Seems like a fairly expensive solution for not having any threat management.
Yes, I didn't see anything in the documentation, but wanted to make sure there was no add on somewhere.
Do you have any recommendations for something that has threat management?
Expensive? If you compare to single or dual WAN Gigabit appliances probably.
It's powerful and capable firewall hardware...
High performance hardware 10G/Multi-Gigabit throughput and 1x2.5G WAN, 1x10G/Multi-Gigabit
WAN/LAN configurable port, 3x2.5G LAN and 1x10G SFP+ LAN.
WAN-to-LAN Throughput When using WAN2 port - 10Gbps max WAN with 17.5Gbps max LAN
When using WAN1 port only - 2.5Gbps max WAN with 27.5Gbps max LAN...even if Netgear still does not publish IPsec VPN throughput numbers, unless I have missed something.
For UTM systems, look out for Check Point, Fortinet, ZyXEL, Sophos, just my personal preferences of choice for example.
