Console Port Access Required
To perform the reimage, you must connect your computer to the console port.
For the ASA 5512-X, 5515-X, 5525-X, 5545-X, and 5555-X, you might need to use a third party serial-to-USB
cable to make the connection. Other models include a Mini USB Type B console port, so you can use any
mini USB cable. For Windows, you may need to install a USB-serial driver from software.cisco.com. See the
hardware guide for more information about console port options and driver requirements:

Download Software
Obtain Firepower Threat Defense software, or ASA, ASDM, and ASA FirePOWER module software. The
procedures in this document require you to put software on a TFTP server for the initial download. Other
images can be downloaded from other server types, such as HTTP or FTP. For the exact software package
and server type, see the procedures.
Note
A Cisco.com login and Cisco service contract are required.
Attention
The Firepower Threat Defense boot image and system package are version-specific and model-specific. Verify
that you have the correct boot image and system package for your platform. A mismatch between the boot
image and system package can cause boot failure. A mismatch would be using an older boot image with a
newer system package.
