Hi there,

This sounds like a fairly small branch site, so you certainly don't need all of the hardware items you listed. You could meeting your requirement with a:

ASA5506-X

C3850-48P-S

 

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/security/asa-5506-x-firepower-services/model.html

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-3850-series-switches/datasheet_c78-720918.html

 

Depending on your VLAN topology the inter-VLAN routing could be configured on either ASA or the 3850. 

If cost was an issue, you could swap the 3850 switch out for an SG350/550 .

 

cheers,

Seb.

If you have a router, why do you need #2?

Hi Jaderson,

 

Thanks.

Steer clear of the ASA5505 it has been EOL'd back in 2017.

The ASA5506-X I mentioned above is the replacement product.

 

cheers,

Seb.
