IT Technical Manager at Adventist Health
We have been using Firepower's series for at least the last six years.
We're staggered right now. The Firepower Management Console is at 7.0 and most of our Firepower units are at 6.6.
We have two areas for deployment. We have them as an edge at our markets, we term our hospitals as markets, but each one of the hospitals will have an HA Pair of the Firepower model. And we also have them in our core, within the ACI infrastructure. We use them as a core firewall along with an Edge firewall.
