Installing System Images

Installing the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP System Image Using the hw-module Command

Note Be sure the TFTP server that you specify can transfer files up to 60 MB in size.

Note This process can take approximately 15 minutes to complete, depending on your network and the size

of the image.

Note The CLI output is an example of what your configuration may look like. It will not match exactly due to

the optional setup choices, sensor model, and IPS 7.1 version you have installed.

To install the system image, transfer the software image from a TFTP server to the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP

using the adaptive security appliance CLI. The adaptive security appliance can communicate with the

ROMMON application of the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP to transfer the image.

To install the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP software image, follow these steps:

Step 1 Download the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP system image file to the tftp root directory of a TFTP server that is

accessible from your adaptive security appliance.

Note Make sure you can access the TFTP server location from the network connected to the Ethernet

port of your adaptive security appliance.

Step 2 Log in to the adaptive security appliance.

Step 3 Enter enable mode.

asa# enable

Step 4 Configure the recovery settings for the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP.

asa (enable)# hw-module module 1 recover configure

Note If you make an error in the recovery configuration, use the hw-module module 1 recover stop

command to stop the system reimaging and then you can correct the configuration.

Step 5 Specify the TFTP URL for the software image.

Image URL [tftp://0.0.0.0/]:

Example

Image URL [tftp://0.0.0.0/]: tftp://192.0.2.0/IPS-SSP_40-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.1-3-E4.img

Step 6 Specify the command and control interface of the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP.

Note The port IP address is the management IP address of the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP.

Port IP Address [0.0.0.0]:

1 ... 264 265 266 ... 422
