Cisco Secure Firewalls (Formerly Cisco Firepower) can provide security along consistency and without speed reduction in the networks. Cisco FTD contains various features, which can be managed by Cisco FMC and FDM, should be enabled using different licenses which we are about to explain in this article.  

Base Licenses  

Essentially, a base license is automatically included with every purchase of a Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) or Cisco FTDv device. The Base license allows you to:  

  • Config your FTD devices (Including Routing, Switching, DHCP relay and NAT)  
  • Config FTD HA pair  
  • Config security intra-chassis clustering (within a FPR 9300 and FPR 4100) 
  • Implement user and application control rules 

Except in deployments using Firepower Universal licenses, Base licenses are automatically added to the Firepower Management Center for every Firepower Threat Defense device you register.  

Malware Licenses 

A Malware license leverages Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) with AMP for Networks and Cisco Threat Grid for Firepower Threat Defense devices. Using this feature, you can use FTD devices to detect and block malware in files transmitted over your network.  

Note: Customers can purchase the Malware (AMP) service subscription as a stand-alone subscription or in combination with Threat (TM) or Threat and URL Filtering (TMC) subscriptions. Also, registering the device using Cisco PLR license will enable this feature permanently.
