For example, the ASA5508X have 8GB of memory as per data sheet, does it mean that the 8GB is shared between the ASA engine and the FP module? or both have their dedicated memory allocation?</P><P>I got confused because when I checked the FP ASDM under the Monitoring &gt; Firepower &gt; Statistics, I can see memory usage and it is not the same as the "show memory" in the ASA engine.</P><P>Thanks</P> Fri, 28 Feb 2020 14:02:34 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037498#M1067123 fatalXerror 2020-02-28T14:02:34Z Re: Memory Allocation for Cisco ASA with Firepower https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037502#M1067125 Firepowere is running an a seperate card on the ASA box.

In addition, the Firepower Services is just a software module and not a hardware type module.</P><P>Thank you for the help.</P> Fri, 28 Feb 2020 14:27:52 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037509#M1067127 fatalXerror 2020-02-28T14:27:52Z Re: Memory Allocation for Cisco ASA with Firepower https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037518#M1067128 ?Yep, you're right... the big boxes got a second piece of hardware for the CX module... but the smaller ones was all software...<BR /><BR /><BR />I have no clue how their allocating if for FP... sorry...<BR /><BR /> Fri, 28 Feb 2020 14:40:32 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037518#M1067128 Ken Stieers 2020-02-28T14:40:32Z Re: Memory Allocation for Cisco ASA with Firepower https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037539#M1067132 <P>Duplicate post.</P> <P>Also answered here:&nbsp;<A href="https://community.cisco.com/t5/security-discussions/system-resource-allocation-for-asa-with-fp/td-p/4037410" target="_blank">https://community.cisco.com/t5/security-discussions/system-resource-allocation-for-asa-with-fp/td-p/4037410</A></P> Fri, 28 Feb 2020 15:22:02 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037539#M1067132 Marvin Rhoads 2020-02-28T15:22:02Z Re: Memory Allocation for Cisco ASA with Firepower https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037671#M1067134 <P><a href="https://community.cisco.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/326046">@Marvin Rhoads</a> how are you? hope you doing well. </P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>the link you shared does not open. it says</P> <H1 class="PageTitle lia-component-common-widget-page-title"><SPAN class="lia-link-navigation lia-link-disabled">Access Denied</SPAN></H1> Fri, 28 Feb 2020 19:14:11 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037671#M1067134 Sheraz.Salim 2020-02-28T19:14:11Z Re: Memory Allocation for Cisco ASA with Firepower https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037857#M1067146 <P><a href="https://community.cisco.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/287680">@Sheraz.Salim</a>&nbsp;I'm fine thanks.</P> <P>Sorry - that link is a thread by the OP in the Partner Community.</P> <P>Try this one for the information:</P> <P><A href="https://community.cisco.com/t5/security-blogs/asa-and-firepower-hardware-fact-sheet/ba-p/3665136" target="_blank">https://community.cisco.com/t5/security-blogs/asa-and-firepower-hardware-fact-sheet/ba-p/3665136</A></P> Sat, 29 Feb 2020 02:55:24 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/memory-allocation-for-cisco-asa-with-firepower/m-p/4037857#M1067146 Marvin Rhoads 2020-02-29T02:55:24Z
