For this task we generally use NMS system to generate this report - personally i have not seen any reports in FMC like trhat - i can only see alerts.

may be worth checking Overview-->reports...report..Templates anything available as per your need.

You have a couple of options. If you already have an SNMP-based network management system then you could just poll the FTD devices directly and retrieve the statistics.

You could create a scheduled report of health events but that would not be a time series table or graph.

You could also just log into FMC once a week and screenshot the health monitor page for each device. 🙂

Optionally, you could create an API script that fetches this information for you and depending on how you want to present it, you can either keep it as text or have it graphed, or connect it to your management system via another API call. If you have a linux system in your network you could set up a "cron" job to run at a fixed interval that executes this script.

The following paths would be the API call paths

/api/fmc_config/v1/domain/{domainUUID}/devices/devicerecords/{containerUUID}/operational/metrics?filter=%20metric%3Acpu&limit=2000&expanded=true"

/api/fmc_config/v1/domain/{domainUUID}/devices/devicerecords/{containerUUID}/operational/metrics?filter=%20metric%3Amemory&limit=2000&expanded=true"

Hello Marvin Rhoads,

Thanks much for your shared information. Even though i have configured SNMP at FMC and FTD to get resources information to zabbix, i cannot get any cpu and memory information from fmc and ftd ,just got interfaces information and other stuff. can you pls put any suggestion on it.

Thank you.

Is your FMC an VM? If so, you can query the hypervisor with SNMP for the VM memory and CPU utilization.

For FTD, what platform / model are you running?

Hello Marvin Rhoads,

I'm using FPR 2100 series. Do i need to configure health policy also? Thanks.

For FTD CPU and memory, you should be able to query using OIDs in the FTD MIB.

FMC can likewise be queried via the hypervisor MIB (for virtual FMC) or by querying the chassis CIMC interface with SNMP (for hardware FMC)
