FTD with HSRP/GLBP

[georgipetrov]

Greetings,

I wanted to ask whether it is possible to set up HSRP/GLBP with two Firepower 1150 FTD devices. I was not able to find any concrete answers looking around, or any recent ones. 

Thank you in advance.

you can not config HSRP in FTD 
because the FTD can work as active/standby FTD HA. 
both HSRP and FTD HA active/standby do same job.

Thank you, and is it possible to do an Active/Active with those two FTDs? So both firewalls carry traffic and are redundant to each other - i.e. if one fails, the other takes the traffic?

I need to check 
if FTD 1150 support active/active (multi instance)
I will update you soon

I understand, thank you for this. Do you think that policy based routing can be an 'alternative' to active active. So you have the two FTDs but you set up policy based routing to determine what source traffic goes to each ?

Cisco Firepower 1000 Series Data Sheet - Cisco

data sheet is 
FTD 1150 support active/active is appliance 
FTD 1150 support only active/standby if run FTD image 

so we return to first point 
FTD run only active/standby 

for using PBR I will check it

For clarity, the 1000 series (1150) supports Active/Active (or Active/Standby) only if running the ASA software image.

Only Active/Standby is supported with the FTD software image.
