Transfer license from FMC to Secure Firewall Management Center?

[jaysoo]

Is it possible to transfer an FMC 6.6.7 license to Secure Firewall Management Center 7.3? They are both virtual versions.

I'm guessing not, but thought I'd ask.

Licenses would need be re-issued using the license key of new FMC where the devices would be registered.

To bind the licenses again with the new FMC, either send an email to licensing@cisco.com or you can issue licenses yourself at https://software.cisco.com but you would need the PAK no. for the licenses of modules along with the license key from new FMC.

If you find this useful, please mark it helpful and accept the solution.

The older version was most likely setup using a PAK-based classic license. While those can be re-hosted as @Pulkit Mittal noted, you generally need a Smart License for newer FMC versions. If you have a Smart licenses for FMC in your account (see software.cisco.com) then it can be associated with the new FMC via a registration token.
