Traffic payload between Cisco ASA Firepower and FireSight Management Center

[Lee Yau Mun]

Hi all,

I have a stupid question to ask.

Can I know what is the traffic payload and I/O throughput between Cisco ASA Firepower and FireSight Management Center?

Currently on a project, client require these kind of information to adapt in their network. Tried find in Cisco document but no luck.

Perhaps you all got any clue to provide.

It varies according to the number of events being reported from the module to the FMC. No events = only health checks and policy changes being exchanged. 10,000 events per second = a lot more traffic.

Generally speaking it's not a significant load though.
