When migrating a perpetual VM-Series firewall to a flexible VM-Series firewall, certain configurations must be aligned to ensure compatibility and licensing continuity: ✅ A. Choose "Fixed vCPU Models" for configuration type -Fixed vCPU Models are required to map directly to the performance and licensing of perpetual VM-Series licenses, which are tied to specific vCPU and memory allocations. ✅ B. Allocate the same number of vCPUs as the perpetual VM -This ensures the performance and feature set remains equivalent during the migration. -The firewall license is often bound to the vCPU/memory configuration, so matching it is essential.
