DESCRIPTION
A government authority in Sumterville, Florida seeks a vendor for the procurement, configuration, and implementation of two Cisco Secure Firewall 1250 appliances. These appliances will be deployed as an active and standby high availability pair across two data centers to ensure robust network security and continuity.
The project includes establishing Layer 3 routing between the firewalls and core Cisco 9404 switches, and requires dynamic routing support with OSPF or BGP as preferred protocols. Additionally, DMZ Cisco 9300x switches must be dual-homed via 10G connections to both firewalls, ensuring optimal connectivity and redundancy across the network infrastructure.
Qualified vendors should be experienced in configuring Cisco Secure Firewalls within complex, high-availability environments and implementing advanced routing protocols and network architectures.
