FP4115 Logical FTD

fatalXerror — Wed, 18 Nov 2020 16:01:43 GMT

Hi Guys,

I am trying to install an FTD 6.4 into my FP4115 with the native type logical device but it is not installing and the blue dot icon states that it is waiting for the previous FTD to be uninstall but I do not see any other FTD installed in my chassis.

What to do next?

Thanks

Not sure what is the procedure you followed, as per my understanding you want your chassis to install different FTD image is this correct.

then follow the below procedure.

Hi @balaji.bandi , I followed Cisco documentations for 4100 FXOS and FTD installation. I want to run FTD into my FP4115 natively but something strange is happening that the system is stating that I have another ftd installed in the appliance but there isn't.
anyway, I tried to reimage my FP4115 hoping it can resolve it.

What do you mean by "natively"? Firepower 4115 will always use Firepower Chassis Manager. What did the device start out with - ASA image or FTD?

Hi @Marvin Rhoads , because in FP4100/9300 you select if you want to be in Native or Container instance when you are creating your logical device in FCM. I just want my FTD natively in my FP4115 to use all 100% resources for that logical device only. Thanks
