Upgrade from a 5505 ASA

[Richwap]

We are planning on getting a new 500gbps/1gbps connection installed in the next few months and we're currently using an old 5505 ASA which we need to replace. What are some options that can handle the bandwidth?

@Richwap it depends on what NGFW features you are going to use, but if the basics the FPR 1120 hardware should suffice for a 1Gb circuit.

If you are going to use some of the more advanced NGFW features such as SSL, IPS etc you'd want to purchase a higher spec hardware.
