Cisco Cisco Firepower Management Center 2000

You cannot use the Defense Center to create backups from or restore backups to ASA FirePOWER 
devices.

You cannot write access control rules to match traffic using VLAN tag conditions.

The ASA FirePOWER device does not have a FireSIGHT web interface. However, it has software and 
a CLI specific to the ASA platform. You use these ASA-specific tools to install the system and to 
perform other platform-specific administrative tasks. For more information, see the ASA FirePOWER 
module documentation.

The Defense Center does not display ASA interfaces when the ASA FirePOWER device is deployed in 
SPAN port mode.

Version 5.3.1 introduces the ability to manage Cisco ASA with FirePOWER Services using FireSIGHT 
Defense Centers. If you reference documentation for Version 5.3 or Version 5.3.0.1, you may notice the 
terminology differs from the documentation for Version 5.3.1.

Cisco documentation may refer to the Defense Center as the FireSIGHT Management Center. The 
Defense Center and the FireSIGHT Management Center are the same appliance.
