FPR4215-NGFW-K9 Description
The FPR4215-NGFW-K9 is a Cisco Secure Firewall 4200 Series 1RU Threat Defense appliance for data center and high-throughput network edge deployments. It delivers 65 Gbps of FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 15 million concurrent sessions with AVC and 45 Gbps of IPsec VPN throughput, with eight 1/10/25G SFP28 data ports, two network module slots and 256 GB of memory. Threat Defense on this platform is managed from Firewall Management Center or Cisco Defense Orchestrator, not device manager.

Product Performance
Key Features
FW + AVC, FW + AVC + IPS and NGIPS all run at 65 Gbps on the 4215 Threat Defense row, which is the figure to size inspected traffic against.
The appliance holds 15 million concurrent sessions with AVC and sets up 350K new connections per second with AVC, below the 4225 NGFW appliance with 30 million sessions.
IPsec VPN throughput is 45 Gbps with 20000 VPN peers, enough headroom for a large remote-access or site-to-site tunnel population on one chassis.
Eight 1/10/25G SFP28 data ports and two SFP28 management ports are fixed. Two hot-swappable slots take 1G to 400G and fail-to-wire network modules.
The 4215 was introduced for Threat Defense 7.4.0 and must be managed from Firewall Management Center rather than device manager. Cisco Defense Orchestrator is the cloud-delivered alternative.
One 1900W AC module is the default, and a second module adds power redundancy. 256 GB of memory and two 1.8 TB SSDs in RAID1 are standard.
Application Scenarios
Data center boundaries connect upstream switches over the eight fixed 1/10/25G SFP28 ports and run FW + AVC + IPS inspection at 65 Gbps, with network modules added for 40G to 400G links.
Headquarters and campus internet edges use the 15 million concurrent sessions with AVC and 350K new connections per second with AVC to inspect user and application traffic under Firewall Management Center policy.
Remote workforce and branch tunnels terminate on the appliance, with 45 Gbps of IPsec VPN throughput and 20000 VPN peers managed centrally through Cisco Defense Orchestrator.

FPR4215-NGFW-K9 and FPR4215-ASA-K9 are the same Secure Firewall 4215 hardware with different software roles: FPR4215-NGFW-K9 runs Threat Defense and is managed from Firewall Management Center or Cisco Defense Orchestrator, while the ASA PID runs Cisco Secure ASA and is managed with Cisco Security Manager, ASDM or Cisco Defense Orchestrator. Designs that require ASA behavior or ASDM-based management order FPR4215-ASA-K9 instead. On the Threat Defense side, FPR4215-NGFW-K9 gives 65 Gbps of FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 15 million sessions with AVC and 45 Gbps of IPsec VPN. Sites that exceed those figures move to FPR4225-NGFW-K9, which raises memory to 512 GB, throughput to 80 Gbps, sessions to 30 million, new connections with AVC to 600K per second and IPsec VPN to 80 Gbps.
