About Secure Firewall Management Center Model Migration

Secure Firewall Management Center allows you to migrate from one management center model to another management center model. After the migration, configurations and events from the source management center are available in the target management center.

From Version 7.2, Firepower Management Center (FMC) is rebranded as Secure Firewall Management Center (management center). Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) is rebranded as Secure Firewall Threat Defense (threat defense).
