Onboard an On-Premises Firewall Management Center to Security Cloud Control with Credentials
To onboard an on-premises management center to Security Cloud Control with credentials, follow this procedure:
Before you begin
The following prerequisites must be met:
For Cloud Secure Device Connector (SDC): Allow inbound traffic on port 443 of the on-premises management center.
The SDC reaches the on-premises management center by allowing inbound traffic on port 443.
Both the Security Cloud Control and the SDC are hosted in the cloud.
For On-Premises Secure Device Connector (SDC): Allow outbound connectivity on port 443 of the SDC.
The SDC requires connectivity to the Security Cloud Control, making it imperative to permit outbound traffic from the SDC to the Security Cloud Control. No additonal port configuration required on the on-premises management center.
