What Features Cisco Firepower offers vs Fortinet for creating Multiple Virtual Firewalls on a Single Device?

We got 2 Options with Cisco firewalling systems. 


  • ASA firewalls support multi-context mode, 
  • FTD firewalls offer multi-instance mode. 

    • These features allow us to deploy multiple container instances on a single chassis, functioning as completely independent devices. The security of these devices is configured by the administrator.

    This capability is supported on Firepower 3100, 4100, 4200, and 9300 series hardware only.
