Why each option
Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense Virtual licenses utilize Smart Licensing, enabling flexibility for deployment on various platforms and across different appliance types.
The maximum number of VPN peers supported varies significantly by the license tier (e.g., LINA VPN, Plus, Total), with higher tiers supporting thousands of VPN peers, not capped at 250.
The number of supported vCPUs depends on the specific Threat Defense Virtual model and license tier, with lower tiers supporting fewer than 16 vCPUs and higher tiers supporting more.
The required available storage for the VM varies by the Threat Defense Virtual model and license tier, with 500GB being a requirement only for the highest tier (e.g., S10/L6), not all licenses.
Cisco Smart Software Licensing allows entitlements to be pooled and consumed by both physical and virtual FTD deployments, assuming the customer has the appropriate licenses in their Smart Account.
Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense Virtual licenses are designed to be platform-agnostic, supporting deployment on various cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and GCP, as well as on-premise hypervisors.
