Hello, I want to automate rule updates, vDB, and code upgrades in FMC. Can I get best practices on when to schedule those?

Thanks

This may vary depending on the environment, but Cisco recommends the following schedule in the latest Cisco Live 2019 presentation by Alex Tatistcheff:

1. SRU – daily update
2. Geolocation – weekly (fixed interval)
3. VDB – daily check for update, install weekly
4. Software – daily check for update, install manually
