Introduction to radware-vdp.8.13.01.09-3.SPA.csp
This software package integrates Radware’s virtual DefensePro (vDP) solution with Cisco Firepower 4100/9300 Series platforms, providing real-time DDoS attack mitigation capabilities. Certified for deployment on ASA and FTD software images, version 8.13.01.09-3 (released Q1 2025) enhances network resilience against volumetric and application-layer attacks while maintaining legitimate traffic throughput up to 30 Gbps in multi-module configurations.
The package optimizes resource allocation through dynamic core management, allowing administrators to allocate 2-10 vCPU cores per security module based on threat prevention requirements. Compatible with both enterprise networks and service provider infrastructures, it supports automated attack pattern recognition and adaptive mitigation policies.
Key Features and Improvements
1. Enhanced Threat Mitigation Performance
- Throughput Scaling: Delivers 10 Gbps mitigation capacity per security module, scalable to 30 Gbps with 3-module Firepower 9300 deployments
- Connection Handling: Supports 627,000 legitimate concurrent sessions in full-configuration environments
- Attack Prevention: Blocks up to 5.4 million packets per second (PPS) in large-scale DDoS flood scenarios
2. Adaptive Resource Management
- Dynamic Core Allocation: Enables on-demand vCPU adjustments from 2 to 10 cores without service interruption
- Performance Optimization: Maintains 75% baseline ASA/FTD functionality when using default 6-core configuration
3. Security Compliance
- FIPS 140-3 Validation: Implements NIST-approved encryption for management plane communications
- Traffic Analysis: Integrates with Cisco Stealthwatch for behavioral attack detection
