  Restoring a Firepower Management Center to Factory Defaults

Firepower Management Center Getting Started Guide



If you deleted license and network settings, you must configure the appliance as if it were new, beginning with 
configuring it to communicate on your management network. See 

.



If you deregistered the Firepower Management Center from the Cisco Smart Software Manager, register the 
appliance to the Cisco Smart Software Manager. Choose System > Licenses > Smart Licenses and click the 
register icon.

Note that deleting license and network settings also resets display (console) and LOM settings. After you complete 
the initial setup process:



If you want to use a serial or SOL/LOM connection to access your appliance’s console, you should redirect 
console output; see “Testing an Inline Bypass Interface Installation” in the Firepower 8000 Series Hardware 
Installation Guide.



If you want to use LOM, you must re-enable the feature as well as enable at least one LOM user; see

Setting Up Lights-Out Management

If you need to restore a Firepower device to factory defaults and do not have physical access to the appliance, 
you can use Lights-Out Management (LOM) to perform the restore process. Note that you can use Lights-Out 
Management on the default (

eth0

) management interface only.

The baseboard management controller (BMC) for a Firepower 71xx, Firepower 82xx, or a Firepower or AMP 

83xx device is only accessible via 1Gbps link speeds when the host is powered on. When the device is powered 
down the BMC can only establish Ethernet link at 10 and 100Mbps. Therefore if LOM is being used to remotely 
power the device, connect the device to the network using 10 and 100Mbps link speeds only.

The LOM feature allows you to perform a limited set of actions on a Firepower device, using a Serial over LAN 
(SOL) connection. With LOM, you use a command line interface on an out-of-band management connection to 
perform tasks such as viewing the chassis serial number, or monitoring conditions such as fan speed and 
temperature. 

The syntax of LOM commands depends on the utility you are using, but LOM commands generally contain the 
elements listed in the following table.
