Introduction to FMT-CP-Config-Extractor_v2.5-6263.exe
The FMT-CP-Config-Extractor_v2.5-6263.exe is a specialized Windows utility designed for extracting and decrypting configuration backups from Cisco Firepower Management Center (FMC) 6.7+ and Secure Firewall 3100/4200 series appliances. This tool enables administrators to perform offline configuration analysis, audit security policies, and migrate rule sets between FMC deployments while maintaining NIST 800-88 data sanitization compliance.
Developed as part of Cisco’s Firepower Maintenance Toolkit (FMT), version 2.5-6263 introduces native support for FMC 7.4.1+ encrypted backups using AES-256-GCM algorithms. The utility maintains compatibility with both physical FMC 4500-series appliances and virtual FMCv instances running on VMware ESXi 7.0+/KVM platforms.
Key Features and Improvements
