1. Is This Guide for You?
This guide explains how to complete the initial configuration of your Firepower Threat Defense device and how to
register the device to a Firepower Management Center. In a typical deployment on a large network, multiple
managed devices are installed on network segments, monitor traffic for analysis, and report to a managing
Firepower Management Center. The Firepower Management Center provides a centralized management console
with web interface that you can use to perform administrative, management, analysis, and reporting tasks.
For networks that include only a single device or just a few, where you do not need to use a high-powered
multiple-device manager like the Firepower Management Center, you can use the integrated Firepower Device
Manager. Use the Firepower Device Manager web-based device setup wizard to configure the basic features of
the software that are most commonly used for small network deployments as described in
http://www.cisco.com/go/fdm-quick.
