Why each option
If an exhibit showed a "Disable Management Interface" option being selected for a managed device, the effect of this Cisco FMC configuration would be to disable the management connection between the Cisco FMC and the Cisco FTD. This action would prevent the FMC from further managing or monitoring the device.
The remote management port might be configured, but "disabling management connection" is a broader action that stops all management communication, not just a specific port setting.
Disabling the management connection typically does not delete the device entry from the FMC; it just makes it unreachable for management purposes, while deletion is usually a separate, explicit action.
While management communication often uses SSL/TLS, stating that the SSL-encrypted communication channel is merely "broken" is less precise than saying the entire "management connection" is disabled, implying a higher-level administrative action.
Based on typical Cisco FMC device management interfaces, an option to "disable management connection" for a managed device would directly result in the cessation of communication between the FMC and that specific FTD device. This action effectively severs the control plane link, meaning the FMC can no longer push policies, retrieve events, or monitor the FTD.
