Troubleshooting the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP
IPS Reloading Messages
Symptom ASA syslog messages similar to the following are observed and the root cause of the message
is not clear:
%ASA-1-505013: ASA-SSM-10 Module in slot 1, application reloading "IPS", version
"7.1(6)E4" Config Change
%ASA-1-505013: ASA5585-SSP-IPS10 Module in slot 1, application reloading "IPS", version
"7.1(1)E4" Config Change
These messages occur once an hour for sensors not actively being configured or more often for sensors
being configured.
Conditions ASA adaptive appliances running an affected software version with an ASA IPS module
(ASA 5500 AIP SSMASA 5500-X IPS SSPASA 5585-X IPS SSP) installed that is running IPS 7.1 or
later. The common cause for these messages is global correlation and/or signature updates occurring on
the ASA IPS module that results in these messages being generated for some, but not necessarily all of
the updates, which are attempted every five minutes.
Workaround None. The cause of these messages can be confirmed on the sensor module by reviewing the
show events status past command output and identifying a status event that corresponds to the ASA
syslog message that matches the date and time. The sensor’s status event should provide further details
about what operation occurred that resulted in the ASA syslog message.

Conditions Loading the IPS image on ASA 5500-X platforms.
