https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/firepower/601/configuration/guide/fpmc-config-guide-v601/fpmc-config-guide-Cisco FTD (Firepower Threat Defense) is a next-generation firewall designed to provide advanced threat protection, including firewall, VPN, and IPS features. Cisco FTD supports various routing options to ensure efficient data flow between network devices.
The two valid routing options with Cisco FTD are:
B. ECMP with up to three equal cost paths across multiple interfaces: ECMP (Equal-Cost Multi-Path) is a routing technique that enables traffic to be distributed across multiple paths of equal cost. Cisco FTD supports ECMP with up to three equal cost paths across multiple interfaces. This helps to provide high availability and load balancing for traffic flow.
D. BGPv4 in transparent firewall mode: BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is a protocol used to exchange routing information between different autonomous systems (AS). Cisco FTD supports BGPv4 in transparent firewall mode. In this mode, the FTD device does not perform NAT (Network Address Translation) or routing; instead, it allows traffic to pass through the firewall without any changes to the original source and destination IP addresses.
The other options, A, C, and E, are not valid routing options with Cisco FTD. BGPv6 is not supported by FTD, and ECMP with up to three equal cost paths across a single interface and BGPv4 with nonstop forwarding are also not supported.
In summary, Cisco FTD supports ECMP with up to three equal cost paths across multiple interfaces and BGPv4 in transparent firewall mode for routing options.
