The Cisco Secure Firewall 4200 Series is a high-end firewall designed to meet the security requirements of large enterprises, datacenters, and service providers. It is available in three different performance models, offering a wide range of options while providing superior threat defense within a compact 1 RU form factor. Key features and benefits of the appliance include:
Cryptographic acceleration architecture preserves performance with SSL and VPN decryption
Save space and energy with 1RU form factor
Future-proof your investment with 8x node cluster
Flexibility of 2x interface module bays for additional interface support
Customize and future-proof investment up to 200G interfaces
2x SSD for event storage and malware analysis
Uptime/resilience with dual management interfaces
Fail-to-wire network modules, further enhancing its reliability and fault tolerance
These platforms can be deployed in both firewall and dedicated IPS modes, providing versatile deployment options. For inline sets and passive interfaces, the 4200 Series supports Q-in-Q (stacked VLAN) with the ability to handle up to two 802.1Q headers in a packet.
