Hardware Bypass Support

The threat defense supports Hardware Bypass for interface pairs on specific network modules on the following models:

  • Firepower 2130 and 2140

  • Secure Firewall 3100

  • Firepower 4100

  • Secure Firewall 4200

  • Firepower 9300

Note

The ISA 3000 has a separate implementation for Hardware Bypass, which you can enable using FlexConfig only (see FlexConfig Policies). Do not use this chapter to configure ISA 3000 Hardware Bypass.

Note

You can use Hardware Bypass interfaces as regular interfaces without the Hardware Bypass feature enabled.

The supported Hardware Bypass network modules for these models include:

  • Firepower 2130 and 2140:

    • Firepower 6-port 1G SX FTW Network Module single-wide (FPR2K-NM-6X1SX-F)

    • Firepower 6-port 10G SR FTW Network Module single-wide (FPR2K-NM-6X10SR-F)

    • Firepower 6-port 10G LR FTW Network Module single-wide (FPR2K-NM-6X10LR-F)

  • Secure Firewall 3100:

    • 6-port 1G SFP Fail-to-Wire Network Module, SX (multimode) (FPR3K-XNM-6X1SXF)

    • 6-port 10G SFP Fail-to-Wire Network Module, SR (multimode) (FPR3K-XNM-6X10SRF)

    • 6-port 10G SFP Fail-to-Wire Network Module, LR (single mode) (FPR3K-XNM-6X10LRF)

    • 6-port 25G SFP Fail-to-Wire Network Module, SR (multimode) (FPR3K-XNM-X25SRF)

    • 6-port 25G Fail-to-Wire Network Module, LR (single mode) (FPR3K-XNM-6X25LRF)

    • 8-port 1G Copper Fail-to-Wire Network Module, RJ45 (copper) (FPR3K-XNM-8X1GF)

  • Secure Firewall 4200:

    • 6-port 1G SFP Fail-to-Wire Network Module, SX (multimode) (FPR4K-XNM-6X1SXF)
