Auto onboard an On-Premises Firewall Management Center integrated with Cisco Security Cloud

This task enables automatic discovery and onboarding of an On-Premises Firewall Management Center integrated with Cisco Security Cloud for centralized security management.

Attention

This method is not available to Government customers. Government customers must use the credentials method to onboard an On-Premises Firewall Management Center to Security Cloud Control.

The auto-discovery and onboarding feature is enabled by default in Security Cloud Control. All On-Premises Firewall Management Centers running version 7.2 or later and integrated with Cisco Security Cloud are automatically discovered and onboarded to Security Cloud Control. The associated Firewall Threat Defense devices are onboarded to Security Cloud Control.

Security Cloud Control also onboards the On-Premises Firewall Management Center high-availability (HA) pair.
