FPR4225-NGFW-K9 Description
FPR4225-NGFW-K9 is a Cisco Secure Firewall 4225 NGFW appliance in the Secure Firewall 4200 Series, built as a 1RU firewall platform for Threat Defense deployments at firewall edge, VPN, and security-services aggregation points. The chassis provides eight fixed 1/10/25G SFP28 fiber data ports, two 1/10/25G SFP28 management ports, two hot-swappable network module slots, 512 GB of system memory, and 80 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, with the 4225 Threat Defense row also listing 30 million concurrent sessions with AVC and 600K new connections per second with AVC.

Product Performance
Key Features
Cisco identifies FPR4225-NGFW-K9 as the Secure Firewall 4225 next generation firewall chassis, keeping it distinct from the 4225 ASA and NGIPS orderable PIDs.
The 4225 row provides 80 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 30 million AVC sessions, and 80 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput for designs that need more capacity than the 4215 NGFW entry.
Cisco release notes state that Secure Firewall 4200 devices must be managed with Firewall Management Center and do not support device manager, so management planning is part of the purchase check.
Eight fixed 1/10/25G SFP28 fiber ports create the starting data-interface layout before optional network modules are selected for additional speeds or hardware-bypass use cases.
The 4200 chassis supports two hot-swappable network module slots, with Cisco-listed options covering 1G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 100G, 200G, 400G, and fail-to-wire modules.
The 4225 hardware profile uses dual AC power supplies with 1+1 redundancy, so the quote should match rack voltage and country-specific power-cord requirements.
Application Scenarios
Choose FPR4225-NGFW-K9 when the design file specifies a Secure Firewall 4225 NGFW appliance and the expected inspection load maps to Cisco’s 80 Gbps Threat Defense entries.
Select this PID when operations, licensing, and management are planned around Threat Defense instead of the FPR4225-ASA-K9 ASA appliance identity.
Use this model when eight fixed 1/10/25G SFP28 ports are required at the base appliance and the BOM may add Cisco-listed network modules for higher-speed or fail-to-wire links.

- In a FPR4225-NGFW-K9 vs FPR4215-NGFW-K9 comparison, the shared 1RU 4200 chassis layout stays the same, but FPR4225-NGFW-K9 moves to 512 GB memory, 80 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 30 million AVC sessions, and 600K new connections with AVC.
- The FPR4225-NGFW-K9 difference from FPR4245-NGFW-K9 is capacity range: FPR4245-NGFW-K9 increases memory to 1 TB, FW + AVC + IPS throughput to 140 Gbps, AVC sessions to 60 million, and IPsec VPN throughput to 140 Gbps.
- For FPR4225-NGFW-K9 vs FPR4225-ASA-K9, the hardware model is the 4225, but the orderable software role changes from Threat Defense / NGFW to Cisco Secure ASA.
- Buyers comparing FPR4225-NGFW-K9 against the 4215, 4245, or ASA alternative should choose the model whose table row matches the approved software role, management method, throughput, session scale, VPN peer count, and power plan.
Selection Guide
1. Start with the orderable software role
Select FPR4225-NGFW-K9 only when the BOM names the Secure Firewall 4225 NGFW appliance or a Threat Defense operating model.
2. Use 4225 values for NGFW sizing
Pick this SKU when the sizing document requires 80 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 30 million AVC sessions, 600K new connections per second with AVC, or 80 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput.
3. Compare neighboring 4200 models by capacity
Stay with FPR4215-NGFW-K9 for a lower 4215 scale row, and move to FPR4245-NGFW-K9 only when the design calls for the higher 4245 memory, session, throughput, or VPN values.
4. Keep management and hardware choices aligned
Confirm Firewall Management Center planning, Smart Account association, supported optics, selected network modules, redundant power, and regional power cords before approving the quote.
Ordering Checklist
|
Review Area |
Required Decision |
Source-Based Risk |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact chassis PID |
Confirm FPR4225-NGFW-K9 rather than FPR4225-ASA-K9 or FPR4225-NGIPS-K9 |
Cisco lists separate 4225 orderable identities for NGFW, ASA, and NGIPS roles |
|
Threat Defense management |
Confirm Firewall Management Center or approved centralized management in the deployment plan |
Cisco release notes state Secure Firewall 4200 devices do not support device manager |
|
Smart Licensing |
Associate the order with the end customer’s Smart Account before completion |
Cisco ordering guidance includes Smart Software Licensing before the FPR4225-NGFW-K9 ordering path |
|
Fixed-port optics |
Choose supported SFP, SFP+, SFP28, DAC, or GLC-TE media for fixed and management ports |
The 4200 hardware guide separates fixed data ports and management-port transceiver planning |
|
Network module mix |
Match each module bay to the needed 1G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 100G, 200G, 400G, or fail-to-wire module |
Network module selection affects supported optics, release checks, and interface counts |
|
Power and cords |
Verify rack voltage and country-specific C21 or jumper cords for the dual AC supplies |
The 4225 uses dual AC power supplies and Cisco lists supported power-cord options separately |
