Which limitation applies to Cisco Firepower Management Center dashboards in a multidomain environment?

Full set: 421 questions
Answer options
A: Child domains can view but not edit dashboards that originate from an ancestor domain.
B: Child domains have access to only a limited set of widgets from ancestor domains.
C: Only the administrator of the top ancestor domain can view dashboards.
D: Child domains cannot view dashboards that originate from an ancestor domain. Correct answer
Correct Answer:
D. Child domains cannot view dashboards that originate from an ancestor domain.
Explanation

In a Cisco Firepower Management Center (FMC) multidomain environment, dashboards are treated as domain-specific configurations. This means a dashboard created in an ancestor domain is completely isolated and not inherited by any descendant (child) domains. Consequently, users in a child domain cannot see, access, or use dashboards that were created in a parent domain. Each domain must have its own dashboards created and managed locally within that domain, ensuring a strict separation of operational views and data for multitenancy purposes.

Why Incorrect

A. Child domains cannot view dashboards from an ancestor domain at all, so the concept of viewing but not editing is inapplicable.
B. The limitation is not on a subset of widgets but on the entire dashboard's visibility; dashboards are not inherited.
C. Administrators of any domain can view dashboards, but only those created within their own specific domain, not just the top ancestor.

1. Cisco Firepower Management Center Configuration Guide

Version 7.2

Chapter: Multidomain Deployments

Section: Domain-Specific Configurations.

The documentation explicitly states: "The following configurations are specific to the current domain and are not inherited by descendant domains: ... Dashboards and dashboard widgets..." This confirms that dashboards are not shared from ancestor to child domains.

2. Cisco Firepower Management Center Configuration Guide

Version 6.7

Chapter: Multidomain Deployments

Section: Domain-Specific Configurations.

This earlier version of the guide provides the same information

listing "Dashboards and dashboard widgets" as configurations that are not inherited by descendant domains

reinforcing this as a fundamental design principle of FMC multidomain architecture.
