Firepower 2110

Hi Team,

Can we implement Firepower 2110 as single entity rather than module for ASA ? If it is does it support routing protocol like BGP, RIP and OSPF

Hi,

The Firepower 2100 hardware can run either Cisco ASA software or Firepower Threat Defense software. 

FTD supports routing protocols like BGP, OSPF, RIP. below is guide for Routing Overview for Firepower Threat Defense.

Thank you for reply.

Any guide for difference between Cisco ASA software or Firepower Threat Defense software ?

There's a big difference.

If you run ASA on Firepower 2110 you cannot use any of the Firepower IPS, URL Filtering or Malware protection features. It is like a base ASA with no service module just on newer and faster hardware than the older ASA hardware.

If you run FTD on Firepower 2110, you get all of the Firepower features and the most commonly used ASA features (but not all of them).

Can't we mitigate DOS and DDOS in firepower 2110 ?
