Cisco Systems and the ASA Services Module Manual De Usuario

Session to the module from the ASA and configure basic settings using the setup command.

(ASA 5512-X through ASA 5555-X) If you cannot session to the module, then the IPS module is not 
running. See the 

, and then repeat this procedure after you install the module.

An ASA IPS module on the ASA 5505 does not have any external interfaces. You can configure a VLAN 
to allow access to an internal IPS management IP address over the backplane. By default, VLAN 1 is 
enabled for IPS management. You can only assign one VLAN as the management VLAN. This section 
describes how to change the management VLAN and IP address if you do not want to use the default, 
and how to set other required network parameters.

Perform this configuration on the ASA 5505, not on the ASA IPS module.

When you change the IPS VLAN and management address from the default, be sure to also configure 
the matching ASA VLAN and switch port(s) according to the procedures listed in 

 in the general operations configuration guide. You must define 

and configure the VLAN for the ASA so the IPS management interface is accessible on the network.

module. You are prompted for basic settings. For the default 
gateway, specify the IP address of the upstream router. See the

default setting of the ASA management IP address will not work.
