hi mohamed
You can place the primary and secondary FWSMs within the same switch or in two separate switches
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/fwsm/fwsm31/configuration/guide/fail_f.html#wp1140822
* The FWSM does not support Virtual Private Network
(VPN) termination except for use in management, whereas the PIX, ASA, and IOS-based
devices all have that capability.
good luck
hope this helpful
