Find the right Cisco Secure Firewall for a branch, internet edge, data center, or ASA-to-Firepower migration. This category helps you compare the Firepower 1000, 2100, 3100, 4100, and 4200 next-generation firewalls by throughput, VPN, threat inspection, HA design, and management (FMC, FDM, or cloud-delivered FMC), then request a quote with the right licenses.

Start from the deployment role. Small branches usually compare the Firepower 1000 series; mid-size edges the 3100; high-performance and data-center designs the 4100 and 4200; virtual and cloud workloads use Secure Firewall Threat Defense Virtual. Match the model to throughput, VPN, inspection, interfaces, and support runway.
Cisco Secure Firewall is the current product-family name. Firepower is the appliance hardware line (1000 to 4200). ASA is the traditional firewall software image, while Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) adds next-generation inspection (intrusion, malware, URL filtering) managed by FMC, cloud-delivered FMC, or FDM. Most Firepower appliances can run either the ASA or FTD image.
Choose ASA mode for continuity with existing ASA policies, operations, or a constrained migration. Choose FTD when you need next-generation inspection (intrusion, malware, URL control) and centralized policy. Confirm feature parity, the manager you will use, and license requirements before ordering.
It depends on scale. FMC or cloud-delivered FMC suits multi-device policy, logging, and upgrades; FDM fits smaller standalone deployments. The management choice affects day-two operations as much as the hardware, so decide it alongside the model.
Small sites typically land on the Firepower 1000 series for cost-effective next-generation firewalling with VPN, while busier branches step up to the 3100 for more throughput and inspection headroom. Size by users, encrypted and VPN traffic, and the features you will enable rather than port count alone.
Size by real traffic mix, not list price. Confirm throughput with threat inspection on, encrypted (TLS) inspection, site-to-site and remote-access (Secure Client) VPN, interface speed, concurrent users, logging volume, and HA design. A model that fits basic routing is often undersized once inspection and VPN are enabled.
Yes, though the path depends on the source platform, software, policy complexity, VPN use, and interfaces. Teams replacing ASA 5500-X, Firepower 2100, or Firepower 4100 should compare current Secure Firewall models, migration tooling, license-transfer limits, and the cutover window.
Quote the appliance with its software mode (ASA or FTD), support, and the subscriptions you need (Threat, Malware, URL Filtering, and VPN or Secure Client), plus Smart Licensing readiness and the management platform. HA pairs and clusters need matching entitlements on every device.
Layer23-Switch supplies new, original Cisco firewalls with warranty and RMA, not refurbished. If you are weighing refurbished for spares or budget, ask first: for production a new unit with a current software and license path is usually the lower-risk choice, and we can quote it competitively.
Send the current firewall, target series, software mode, throughput goal, VPN users, the inspection features you will run, interface speeds and optics, power-supply and HA or cluster plan, license term, support level, management platform, and shipping location, and whether it is a new deployment, migration, or spare.
Cisco firewalls protect branch offices, campus internet edges, data center perimeters, remote-access VPN users, and high-throughput security zones. Buyers usually compare Cisco firewall models by firewall throughput, threat inspection performance, VPN capacity, interface speed, high-availability design, software image, license bundle, and lifecycle status. This page helps you choose the right Cisco Secure Firewall or Firepower series based on deployment size, inspection needs, and replacement fit.
Small offices, retail sites, remote branches, and lean security deployments usually start with the Cisco Firepower 1000 Series. Models such as FPR1010, FPR1120, FPR1140, and FPR1150 are commonly selected by user count, VPN requirements, WAN speed, copper or SFP interface needs, and whether advanced threat inspection will be enabled. For many branch refresh projects, this series is the first option to compare when replacing older ASA or entry-level Firepower appliances.
Medium branches, campus edges, and enterprise internet gateways usually evaluate the Cisco Firepower 2100 Series and the newer Cisco Firepower 3100 Series. These platforms are chosen when the project needs more inspection headroom, faster interfaces, better VPN capacity, and a stronger high-availability design. Before choosing a model such as FPR2110, FPR2120, FPR3105, FPR3110, or FPR3120, confirm firewall throughput with inspection enabled, interface speeds, optics, rack layout, power redundancy, software image, and license term.
Data centers, high-throughput internet edges, service provider environments, and clustered firewall designs usually compare the Cisco Firepower 4100 Series and Cisco Firepower 4200 Series. These firewalls are used when the deployment needs higher encrypted traffic inspection, 10G, 25G, 40G, or 100G interface planning, larger session capacity, HA or cluster design, rack and power planning, and a longer replacement runway.
A Cisco firewall order is not only hardware. Software mode, management platform, security subscriptions, support coverage, and license term can all affect the final BOM. Most buyers need to confirm whether the firewall will run ASA or FTD, how it will be managed, and which security services are required, such as Threat, Malware, URL Filtering, VPN, or support coverage. Review Cisco firewall licenses together with the appliance so the quoted firewall matches the deployment, not just the model name.
For an accurate Cisco firewall quote, send the current or target model, expected traffic, VPN users, inspection features, interface speed, optics plan, software mode, HA requirement, license term, support expectation, and shipping location. If you are replacing an older ASA or Firepower appliance, include the existing SKU and license status so the new firewall fits the deployment. Layer23-Switch supplies 100% new, original Cisco firewall hardware with warranty and RMA support, and our engineers can help confirm the model, license, optics, power, and replacement fit before the order is placed.
