Overview

How to change the Firepower 1010 management IP address when you cannot use the default ASDM addresses, so you can reach ASDM from your network.

By default, you can launch ASDM from the following interfaces:

  • Ethernet 1/2 and higher—192.168.1.1

  • Management 1/1—192.168.45.1

If you cannot use the default IP address, you can set the IP address of the Management 1/1 interface at the ASA CLI.

Procedure

1.

Connect to the console port and access global configuration mode. See Access the ASA CLI.
2.

Restore the default configuration with your chosen IP address.

configure factory-default [ip_address [mask]]

Example:


ciscoasa(config)# configure factory-default 10.1.1.151 255.255.255.0
Based on the management IP address and mask, the DHCP address
pool size is reduced to 103 from the platform limit 256

WARNING: The boot system configuration will be cleared.
The first image found in disk0:/ will be used to boot the
system on the next reload.
Verify there is a valid image on disk0:/ or the system will
not boot.

Begin to apply factory-default configuration:
Clear all configuration
