VDB Updates

kostasthedelegate — Wed, 01 Jul 2020 13:38:32 GMT

Hello

I would like to ask if the latest file of VDB Update in FMC includes the previous ones?

I have a couple of file to install

Do I have to install them all?

Or the latest one will suffice?

Thanks and regards,

Konstantinos

Hi Chakshu,

Will there be noticeable impact while we upgrade VDB.

VDB installs to FMC have zero impact on managed devices. Once you deploy to sync the managed devices there is the possibility of interruption in the IPS function (Snort inspection) but traffic will continue to flow through the firewall.

No impact while installing the VDB, there might be a short network interruption (couple of seconds), while deploying policy post installation.
