FMC/FTD Policy Migration

Is it possible to migrate FTD policy from an FMC both running version 7.0.x.x to a new FMC running version 7.0.x.x then upgrade the FMC to version 7.4 and assign the policies to new FTD running version 7.4 ????

Thanks

@benolyndav you can migrate the policy from one FMC to another, but they must be running the same version. So as long as the policy is imported before upgrading it should be ok. You cannot export from 7.0 and import to 7.4, as they must be running the same version.

@Rob Ingram
Hi

Yes I was wondering if I would be able to use th policy on the new FTD running Version 7.4
so

1. Migrate policy from FMC on 7.0.x.x to FMC on 7.0.x.x

2. Upgrade FMC to 7.4

3.Manage new FTD from FMC using the upgraded policy.??

Thanks

@benolyndav yes, that was the procedure I was thinking.
