We are running a Firepower 1120 Security Appliance running the latest recommended software FDM 6.4.0.4.
Whenever we make a change to any of the NAT policies and deploy the change it seems to delete all the NAT rules and re-add them instead of just changing the one we want. This has the adverse effect of disconnecting our socket connections on our Site-to-Site VPN connections because the NAT doesn't exist for a second. The same problem also seems to happen when we make a change to any of the VPN profiles. The only error message I see on the console is that
User 'enable_1' executed the 'no crypto map s2sCryptoMap interface outside' command.
User 'enable_1' executed the 'crypto map s2sCryptoMap interface outside' command.The problem there is all of our VPN connections use the outside interface so they all get disconnected!

Well I just got a response from our Cisco technician who has been helping us with another Firepower issue, saying that this is "normal behavior".
So public service announcement for anyone thinking about purchasing a Firepower security appliance that if you change any of the rules it disconnects everyone using the device.
I have to say I never heard of a firewall where you can't change a NAT rule without affecting everyone else...
