SNCF — Securing Networks with Firepower — Question 69

An engineer is configuring a second Cisco FMC as a standby device but is unable to register with the active unit. What is causing this issue?

Answer options

• A. The code versions running on the Cisco FMC devices are different.
• B. The licensing purchased does not include high availability.
• C. The primary FMC currently has devices connected to it.
• D. There is only 10 Mbps of bandwidth between the two devices.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because if the Cisco FMC devices are running different code versions, they cannot communicate correctly, preventing registration. Options B, C, and D do not directly affect the ability to register the standby device; licensing and device connections can be managed separately, while bandwidth may not be the primary issue in this context.
