Just wondering, if i have multiple branches and grab the ISR 4331 with the firepower module can i hook them up into FMC to manage?
That would go the same for the head office with ASA-5555-X with firepower, feed it into a the FMC?
Hi,
Trying to determine which router for my private WAN edge, the provider will manage the mpls network just need a router at the main office, i'm thinking the isr 4331 for the branches, there are about 4 branches with 40 staff per branch, looking ...

I was looking at an ISR model that meets the requirements now but also can be upgraded later if they...
Ok, thank you. I see the ISR's have various "Performance" differences, i was assuming this was the WAN throughput, it was a little unclear.
Looks like the ISR 4k's max out at 2G which is heaps for me. Might just go with the 4k's all round, make it ...
Thanks for the information, good to know about the licensing. Cisco sure do know how to license their products. The appliance seems to be the way to for my use case, they don't have any VM infrastructure, small sites.
Thanks Phil,
I've been reading and found the same, no stack and vPC. They still seem Ok to me but you're right the added complexity is it a bit of drain. I also don't have any 10Gbe servers at this point, so i'd just be buying mainly 1Gbe SFP's. Go...
