your mgmt should be at least FP3 to be upgraded to NG X.
you can manage any NG-module (NG FCS to NG AI R55) with NG X management.

Actually, FP3 is the lowest version that is of any use with NGX. Contrary to
what the release notes say, you cannot manage anything prior to FP3, or not
reliably so, and you cannot upgrade from releases prior to FP3.
There's a couple more caveats, like some VPN settings not being preserved
through the upgrade - and we've seen some funkyness with DCE/RPC traffic
through an FP3 firewall managed by a non-FP3 mgmt station. Since the mgmt
station upgrade is the hardest bit, I'd recommend bringing the modules up to
NGX too as soon as possible.
