Requirements and prerequisites for deployment management

Before using the configuration deployment feature in the Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center, ensure you meet these requirements.

  • You must have Administrator, Network Admin, or Security Approver privileges to access the deployment features.

  • Before deploying policy changes, you can compare the differences between the current device configuration and the pending policy, ensuring accuracy before you finalize the deployment. To use this feature, you must have the appropriate access rights, valid licenses for the specific policy, and be in the correct domain context.

  • You must enable REST API access to preview the changes before a deployment. To enable the REST API access, follow the steps in Enabling REST API Access in the Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center Administration Guide.
