Title: Using Firepower with a router on behalf of Irvin
Post by: Administrator on September 30, 2024, 07:59:56 AM

Hello I would like to know if you have any videos deploying Firepower with a router. At the moment I am watching the Firepower 6.7 FDM and it looks like the firepower is replacing the router. Is this best practice? I am all new to firewalls and I find your material very useful and I thank you. Could you please let me know. Thank You

In the Firepower lab, there is actually a lab router in front of it that connects to the internet. You can deploy Firepower in several modes but routed mode is the most common. You may or may not put a router in front of it depending on requirements and size of your deployment. In a Data center, you will most likely have a dedicated internet router. Hope this helps.
