Requirements for Direct Integration


Requirement Type	Requirement
Device	FTD devices. Managed by the FMC. Managed by the FDM.
Version	US cloud: 6.4 or later EU cloud: 6.5 or later APJC cloud: 6.5 or later Version requirement applies both to devices and to the FMC (if applicable).
Licensing	No special license is required for this integration. However: Your system must be licensed to generate the events that you want to view in Cisco SecureX threat responseSecureX. For details, see https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/security/firepower-ngfw/products-licensing-information-listing.html. This integration is not supported under an evaluation license. Your environment cannot be using a Cisco Smart Software Manager On-Prem server (formerly known as Smart Software Satellite Server) or be deployed in an air-gapped environment.
Account	See Account Requirements for Direct Integration. If you are using the FDM with Cisco Defense Orchestrator(CDO) , see also Link Your Cisco Defense Orchestrator and Cisco XDR Tenant Accounts.
Connectivity	FMC and managed devices must be able to connect outbound on port 443 to the Cisco cloud at the following addresses: North America cloud: api-sse.cisco.com https://eventing-ingest.sse.itd.cisco.com https://mx.sse.itd.cisco.com EU cloud (6.5 and later): api-sse.cisco.com api.eu.sse.itd.cisco.com https://eventing-ingest.eu.sse.itd.cisco.com https://mx.eu.sse.itd.cisco.com Asia (APJC) cloud (6.5 and later): api.apj.sse.itd.cisco.com https://mx*.apj.sse.itd.cisco.com https://eventing-ingest.apj.sse.itd.cisco.com
Requirement for appliance and device status features	If you want to be able to view SecureX tiles that show system information such as whether your appliances and devices are running optimal versions: This feature is supported only for the FMC deployments, not the FDM. You must send data to the cloud using a direct connection. Cisco Success Network (CSN) must be enabled on the FMC. To verify or enable this setting, go to the System > Smart Licenses page in the FMC. If you have questions about this, search the FMC online help for "Cisco Success Network." It takes up to 24 hours for appliance and device status tiles to update after you enable CSN.
General	Your system is generating events as expected.
