what is BOM? 

1. What all are the things i can achieve with this BOM. ( All the features include firepower services )

- you can maximuise the most out of it. with layer 7 inspection with URL/IPS/Malware. I can see you have anyconnect lic for 3 year. have you also bought the lic for Firepower?

2. I see 5506-X firepower services is now EOL, is that so?

here it is supported until 2024 even its EOL. 5506-X support upto firepower version 6.2.3. with version upto 9.9x here

@Sheraz.Salim  Thank you for the update

I need some more info from you if possible. I have this BOM with me only, no exact info they gave me and want me to setup a small enterprise and solution in which they required like checkpoint identity awareness and ssl vpn kind of solution.

Let me explain what they want with this BOM, There are 8 servers (Inside the enterprise) behind ASA FW and on public side there is 1 azure VM. From that VM User will RDP the servers with user/pwd only via firewall.

See, If i have Checkpoint here, there is identity awareness SSl vpn option with connect with radius and AD and i easliy done this, but now i have only this info in my BOM and i really want to achieve that solution or what is the solution i can achieve with this or what exactly i need in BOM?

Can you please help me out.

-From this Azure VM the user will RDP to inside server. Is the requirment is that this only Azure will RDP to the inside server? if yes than you have a configure a static nat rule. or does this Azure VM will be using cisco anyconnect software so they user can remote login from this VM to inside network behind fireall.
