Virtual Platform Requirements

High availability is supported for the following public cloud platforms:

  • Amazon Web Services (AWS)

  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)

And these on-prem/private cloud platforms:

  • Cisco HyperFlex

  • Kernel-based virtual machine (KVM)

  • Microsoft Hyper-V

  • VMware vSphere/VMware ESXi

The management centers must have the same device management capacity (not supported on FMCv2) and be identically licensed. You also need one threat defense entitlement for each managed device. For more information, see License Requirements for Management Center High Availability Configurations.

Note

If you are managing Version 7.0.x Classic devices only (NGIPSv or ASA FirePOWER), you do not need FMCv entitlements.
