Cisco ASA 5500-Series Firewalls

  • April 04, 2016

What do you like best about the product?
Cisco ASA5500 Series firewalls are very robust appliances. Between the ASDM interface and the CLI interface, most users will find management easy once you understand the basics of how the device works. Advance users will find tons of tools and debugging options for troubleshooting and granular management.

The appliances are powerful, allowing you to size your device for your user load. Cisco has a great chart to show you this plus the licensing schema. Contacting your Cisco Rep or partner is the best way to make sure you size your appliance the proper way.

Failover works extremely well if you are in an environment that cannot have downtime at your site.
What do you dislike about the product?
JAVA! The ASDM is still based on Java; the sooner Cisco can eliminate this, the better. The licensing schema can be a bit tough sometimes, so you need to make sure you check for what you need - especially on the VPN side of things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using the ASA-5500 series firewalls (along with Sourefire IPS Modules) we are able to mitigate threats from our environment.

VPN Deployment has been great, and Cisco Support is second to none when it matters.

SourceFire IPS / IDS sensors have come a long way from Cisco's original in house IPS solution. The system is very robust and the management interface is light years ahead of the old management system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do your homework to make sure this device will suit your needs.
