You can deploy Firepower onto the SSD in the 5545.  You can then use Firesight to manage all of those modules centrally.

Works well.

Thanks philp,

                Is there any limitation on firesight to manage firepower ? as i have more tha 30 ASA to manage ?

There sure is. This URL has a table showing the different limits. http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/security/firesight-management-center/datasheet-c78-732251.html According to that table you would need one of the physical appliances, such as the FireSIGHT FS2000.
