Overview

Features

The Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center series includes three models: FMC1800, FMC2800, and FMC4800. The Firewall Management Center series runs software that provides extensive intelligence about the users, applications, devices, threats, and vulnerabilities that exist in your network. They also use this information to analyze your network’s vulnerabilities. They then provide tailored recommendations on what security policies to put in place and what security events you should investigate.

The Firewall Management Center series supports Cisco Secure Threat Defense Version 10.0.0. See the Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense Compatibility Guide, which provides Cisco Secure software and hardware compatibility, including operating system and hosting environment requirements, for each supported version.

The following figure shows the FMC4800.

1 Use only SFPs that have been qualified for use on the management center. Although non-Cisco SFPs and other Cisco SFPs are allowed, we do not recommend using them because they have not been tested and validated by Cisco. Cisco TAC may refuse support for any interoperability problems that result from using an untested SFP transceiver.

Power cord specifications

Each power supply has a separate power cord. Standard power cords or jumper power cords are available for connection to the Firewall Management Center series. The jumper power cords for use in racks are available as an optional alternative to the standard power cords.

If you do not order the optional power cord with the system, you are responsible for selecting the appropriate power cord for the product. Using a incompatible power cord with this product may result in electrical safety hazard. Orders delivered to Argentina, Brazil, and Japan must have the appropriate power cord ordered with the system.


Note


Only the approved power cords and jumper cords provided with the Firewall Management Center series are supported.
