Cisco ASA 5500-X with FirePOWER Services

Cisco ASA 5500-X, we have deployed this firewall to most of our customers. We also run a pair of these in our data center and so far we have not experienced any issues with the setup. The firewalls are configured in an active/standby mode allowing connectivity back to the ISP via diverse routes and utilizing BGP. Direct peering with the ISP means we don't require managed layer 3 routers from the ISP, reducing the cost and removing another unneeded layer of hardware, and improving latency.

The Cisco ASA 5500-X with FirePOWER Services can be deployed in a number of different scenarios which can vary from the protection of important business data to or separation of different user groups.
