ASA 5506X replacements with FPR1010 adding to FMC

Lee Dress — Mon, 06 Apr 2020 14:40:47 GMT

We are in the process of replacing our remote ASA 5506X devices with the new FPR1010 devices.

Our FMC at the main office manages all of these devices with classic licenses.

I know the new FPR 1010 devices require a smart license.

Is there any issue running in a "hybrid" type mode where some devices have classic licenses, and some licenses are smart?

I've been able to create a VPN Site to Site connection between the main 5516x and the new unit. I just want to manage the policies that are applied to the new device via FMC.

Topology Overview:

Main Site and DR Site: ASA 5516X w/Firepower attached to FMC with Classic Licenses (not being replaced)

Remote Large offices: ASA 5508X w/Firepower attached to FMC with Classic Licenses (not being replaced)

all other remote offices: ASA 5506X w/Firepower attached to FMC with Classic Licenses (these are being replaced with the new FPR1010 devices.)

Thanks in advance for any help.

A given FMC can manage both types of devices.

I've done that with a mix of Legacy Sourcefire 3D series (PAK licensed) and FTD (smart licensed) since 6.0 or 6.1.

Thank you.

That's what I was hoping.
