The way they operate is initial boot is Wind River Linux ------- > Then it loads the FXOS "Hypervisor/os" which then loads LINA (ASA code) which then loads the FTD (small linux distro and snort engine) Which is in parallel to ASA. All layer 4 traffic gets punted to the FTD(Snort engine) then back down to LINA and either it was dropped or it gets forwarded to the next interface. You finally have another product running in the same box called (FDM - Firepower Device manager) which replaces ASDM. There are tons of moving parts internally and lots of potential for trouble. You can order it with just ASA installed or convert from FDM/LINA to ASA.
True, the issue was: On the ASA you had two separate systems: ASA base and an FTD. Thinking back to how Cisco used to do IPS they just went the same way. The ASA license comes with the NFGW order.
Could be the best firewall in the world, I will never buy a firewall with subscription services, but thanks for the video at least now I know that. Staying with Pfsense on my own hardware.
I agree 100% Cisco/Juniper/Palo are typically used by organization/government because that's how they work. Keep in mind, if you want to be a network engineer/security engineer in a job then using this in your infrastructure is a great idea.
Life tip. Order this part #FPR1010-ASA-K9 This is the model with ASA Running natively which makes it a drop in replacement to the 5506-x. You get your 2 Anyconnect premium peer licenses (which is no longer included if you get the NGFW part) Firepower Threat Defense is a major mess and its ASA and Snort with Tomcat and other stuff crunched together and its a mess.
How to factory reset the firepower 1010? My system connects to the internet and after a few minutes, it drops connection and none of the services work.
Great video.

@@ntraas1584 Thats why they keep getting hacked, if you really want a secure system you have to go Open source.

True, but the ASA software/license comes with NGFW order. It's a few more steps but it's a good learning.

If you can get to cli: configure manager delete.
You still having issues?
