Features
The Cisco Firepower 4100 series security appliance is a standalone modular security services platform. It is
capable of running multiple security services simultaneously and so is targeted at the data center as a
multiservice platform. The series includes the Firepower 4110, 4120, 4140, and 4150. See Product ID Numbers,
on page 26 for a list of the product IDs (PIDs) associated with the 4100 series.
The Firepower 4100 series supports Cisco Firepower Threat Defense, Cisco Firepower eXtensible Operating
System (FXOS), and Cisco ASA software. See Cisco Firepower 4100/9300 FXOS Compatibility, which lists
software and hardware compatibility information for the Firepower 4100 series.

Deployment Options
Here are some examples of how you can deploy the Firepower 4100:
• In a data center using NGFW and ASA
• At the core/aggregation layer of a 3-tier data center in a high availability configuration
• As a dedicated multifunctional security service within converged infrastructure stacks, for example,
vBlock, FlexPod, and so forth, at the access layer
• As a high-performance data center security appliance between the WAN edge and the data center core
in a high availability configuration
• Inter-DC clustering deployments
• In newer spine/leaf data center designs, deployment as a leaf that exclusively offers security functions

The power switch is located to the left of power supply module 1 on the rear of the chassis. It is a toggle
switch that controls power to the system. If the power switch is in standby position, only the 3.3-V standby
power is enabled from the power supply module and the 12-V main power is OFF. When the switch is in the
ON position, the 12-V main power is turned on and the system boots.
You can shut down the chassis in one of two ways:
• Perform a graceful shutdown using the shutdown commands (see the FXOS CLI Configuration Guide
for the procedure). This may take several minutes to complete. Then toggle the power switch to the OFF
position. The power LED changes from solid green to off immediately.
Overview

Overview
Rear Panel

If you move the power switch to the OFF position before the shutdown command
sequence is complete or if you remove the system power cords before the graceful
shutdown is complete, disk corruption can occur.
Caution
• Toggle the power switch to the OFF position. The power LED changes from solid green to off.
After removing power from the chassis either by moving the power switch to OFF or unplugging the power
cord, wait at least 10 seconds before turning power back ON.
Note
Network Modules
The Firepower 4100 contains two network module slots that provide optical or electrical network interfaces.
Network modules are optional, removable I/O modules that provide either additional ports or different interface
types (1/10/40 Gb). The Firepower network modules plug into the chassis on the front panel.

• See 40-Gb Network Module, on page 10 for a description of the 40-GB network module.
• See Hardware Bypass Network Modules, on page 11 for the location and description of the LEDs,
and the port configurations for the hardware bypass network modules.
• See Install the Network Module for the procedure for removing and replacing network modules.
10-Gb Network Module
The following figure shows the front panel of the 10-Gb network module (FPR4K-NM-8X10G). The
FPR4K-NM-8X10G is a single-wide module that supports hot swapping. The eight ports are numbered from
top to bottom, left to right.
Make sure you have the correct firmware package and software version installed to support this network
module. For instructions on how to verify your firmware package version and to upgrade the firmware if
necessary, see the Cisco Firepower 4100/9300 FXOS Firmware Upgrade Guide. See Cisco Firepower 4100/9300
FXOS Compatibility for the software compatibility matrix.
Note
The FPR4K-NM-8X10G is NEBS-compliant.

Network Modules

You can fit four copper SFPs in either the top row of ports or the bottom row of ports. Both rows cannot be
populated at the same time, because of the port row spacing.
