Enable Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center on Your Security Cloud Control Tenant

If you want to manage your Secure Firewall Threat Defense devices, you can enable the Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center on your tenant. You need to have an admin or a super admin user role to perform this task.

Procedure

1

From the Security Cloud Control menu, click Administration > Integrations > Firewall Management Center and click Enable Cloud-Delivered FMC.
2

Security Cloud Control starts provisioning a Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center instance in the background; it typically takes 15 to 30 minutes for this to be complete. You can track the provisioning progress on the Status column of Cloud-Delivered FMC.

After the provisioning is complete, the status changes to Active. In addition, you get a Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center is Ready notification on the Security Cloud Control notifications panel and on the applications on which you have configured incoming webhooks. See Notification Settings for more information.


 

After you receive the Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center is Ready notification, ensure that you log out of and log in back to your tenant once, to see the Cloud-Delivered FMC right pane options, such as Actions, Management, and System.

You can then onboard your threat defense devices to the Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center and manage them.
