Cisco Firepower 2130 NGFW Appliance

The Cisco Firepower 2130 NGFW Appliance delivers superior business resiliency and proactive protection for mid-size to enterprise networks. Designed to handle sustained throughput while enforcing sophisticated security policies, this 1U security powerhouse combines advanced firewalling, cryptographic processing, and real-time threat inspection on a dual multicore CPU architecture. By integrating Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) with Cisco’s extensive threat intelligence, the 2130 enables organizations to see and stop threats faster, reduce dwell time, and simplify security operations across campuses, data centers, and branch offices. Built for resilience, it supports scalable licensing and centralized management, empowering security teams to respond to changing network needs with confidence. Whether deployed at the network edge or within data center perimeters, the Firepower 2130 protects critical assets while ensuring reliable, low-latency performance for legitimate user activity.

  • Next-Generation firewall power: A purpose-built, dual multicore CPU architecture optimizes firewall, cryptographic, and threat inspection workloads in parallel, delivering sustained performance under heavy traffic while maintaining low latency for business-critical apps.
  • Comprehensive threat protection: Integrated Cisco Firepower Threat Defense provides intrusion prevention (IPS), malware protection, URL filtering, application visibility and control, and SSL/TLS inspection to detect and block threats across all network segments.
  • Integrated threat intelligence: Leveraging Cisco Talos and continuous security updates, the 2130 translates intelligence into actionable security policies, helping you stay ahead of evolving threats without manual tuning.
  • Secure, scalable deployment: Flexible licensing, centralized management via Cisco FMC or Secure Firewall Management Center, and a modular design that scales with your network growth—from branch offices to regional data centers.
  • Resilient, enterprise-grade hardware: Designed for reliability with options for redundancy and streamlined firmware updates, ensuring protection remains active with minimal downtime during maintenance windows.

How to install Cisco Firepower 2130 NGFW Appliance

  • Prepare the installation environment by selecting a secure, ventilated rack space with proper grounding and adequate airflow to prevent thermal throttling.
  • Mount the 2130 securely in a standard 19-inch rack and connect power, management, and data interfaces according to your network topology.
  • Power on the appliance and access the initial configuration via the console or the default management interface. Complete the setup wizard to configure IP addresses, time settings, and device identity.
  • Apply the latest Firepower Threat Defense firmware and licenses for firewalling, IPS, URL filtering, and malware protection. Register the device with your FMC or Secure Firewall Management Center for centralized control.
  • Define your security posture by creating baseline policies: network access rules, NAT, VPN, and SSL inspection policies tailored to your organization’s traffic profiles.
  • Enable threat protection features and tune IPS and malware policies to minimize false positives while maintaining robust coverage across known and emerging threats.
  • Configure logging, monitoring, and alerting. Integrate with your SIEM, set up syslog destinations, and establish secure backups of configurations and policy data.
  • Test the deployment with representative traffic to validate policy effectiveness, connectivity, and performance. Verify VPN connections, remote access, and SSL decryption workflows before moving to production traffic.
  • Establish a routine maintenance plan for software updates and signature refreshes to ensure ongoing protection against new attack vectors.
