Upgrading FTD Series

[dcanady55]

Hello,

Currently, running 2110's in our environment. I am looking for advice or documentation on what metrics should I be looking at to know if we need to upgrade to a higher model i.e. 4100 series model.

Thanks in advance.

@dcanady55 What features do you intend to run on the new hardware?

You should contact your Cisco partner, they can use the NGFW Performance Estimator tool (Cisco and Partners only), you tell them what features (IPS, URL Filtering, IPSec, Anti-Malware etc) and performance you require, this will then provide a list of suitable hardware that will meet your needs.

Thanks Rob. I will do just that.
