Please help me to find the differences in Chassis management and firepower management .

In firepower 9300 i can see management port for only to manage chassis .

Hi,
chassis management interface is used for management of the FXOS Chassis by SSH or Firepower Chassis Manager. This interface appears at the top of the Interfaces tab as MGMT, and you can only enable or disable this interface on the Interfaces tab. This interface is separate from the mgmt-type interface that you assign to the logical devices for application management.

Firepower Management interface is for managing the logical devices(FTD) and it is shared across all SM modules. With this interface IP you can register with FMC.

9300 does not support Firepower Device Manager (FDM), you need to register with Firesight Managemnet Center (FMC) for configuring HA

Below is the quick start guide for firepower 9300

FMC is the only option you have here.
