CISCO FirePOWER Recommendation

[dpsw120]

Hello All,

So i need to buy a Firewall Hardware and the requirements are :

1. Firewall Capability

2. IDS and IPS (one if possible both)

3. No Subscription

And my seller offer me ASA5508-FTD-K9, my questions are :

1. What feature does it have?

2. Does it include IDS and IPS?

3. Do i need to buy Subscription for this? and when im not buying it, what would happen?

I already ask this to my seller but no reply so i hope someone can answer it in here.

Thank You.

I'll update to Firepower 6.4 after i get the device.

Yap it's clear to me about the license, but it's just weird to buy license to get the feature that don't need and updatesif it's like virus database or antivirus i will understand to get the updates.

Thank you for your assistance.
