NetBrain currently evaluates full firewall policy logic as part of every path calculation, which can significantly increase calculation time, particularly in environments with large or complex rule sets. This enhancement would introduce an optional mode that bypasses firewall policy checks and evaluates only routing reachability through the firewall, while still allowing the ignore strategy to be specified when calculating paths through the API. Customers who need faster path results and do not require policy-level detail for a given analysis would benefit from significantly reduced calculation time without sacrificing the ability to perform full policy-aware analysis when needed.
