Virtual FMC Licensing

[DavideRanalli76560]

Hi all,

shortly a vFMC and 6 FTDs will be added to a network.

The vFMC  is: SF-FMC-VMW-K9 for 25 devices. Smart account will be created soon.

My question is, will we need licenses in vFMC in order to manage the new 6 FTDs?

Many thanks

David

FMC hardware does not require a license, but a virtual Firepower Management Center (FMCv) requires an entitlement for each device it will manage
