Hierarchy for Firepower: FMC and ASDM

[johnlloyd_13]

hi,

i deployed a new FMCv with no policy/rules yet. i have ASA+FP module which has FP rules that are currently active.

my question is, if  i apply classic license on the FMC and create FP access rules, which policy will take effect: the local rules created on ASA FP module or on the FMC?

will this create issue or errors if both are enabled?

do i need to delete FP rules on the ASA/ASDM?

Hi,
You need to register the ASA FP module with FMC, then only the policy specifying in FMC will be in effect. Otherwise the policy which you specified via ASDM will work.

While registering ASA FP to FMC all the existing policy mentioned via ASDM wil be deleted and the policy which is specifed via FMC will be applied.
