This section describes how to install the ASA 5585-X IPS SSP system image using the hw-module 
command or ROMMON, and contains the following topics:

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.

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

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

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

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. 

Make sure you can access the TFTP server location from the network connected to the Ethernet 
port of your adaptive security appliance.

Log in to the adaptive security appliance.

Enter enable mode.
