Securing Networks with Cisco Firepower
Duration: 5 DaysAvailability: 24 LabsResources: 8 vCPU · 16 GB RAM
Overview
A real Cisco Firepower (FTD/FMC) lab: access control policy, intrusion prevention and NAT, run against a live Firepower Management Center rather than a static walkthrough.
Images included
- A Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) appliance image
- A Cisco Firepower Management Center (FMC) image controlling it
- Linux test host images for policy and IPS event testing
Environment & resources
A live FMC-managed FTD deployment with test traffic flowing through it, so policy changes produce visible, analyzable events.
Intermediate lab · 8 vCPU · 16 GB RAM
Mixed topologies: routers and switches alongside a firewall or application server.
FAQ
Is FMC included or just the FTD device?
Both. You manage FTD through a live Firepower Management Center, as in a production deployment.
Does this cover IPS tuning?
Yes, intrusion policy configuration and event data are part of the lab.
