1.
Cable the following to a Layer 2 Ethernet switch:
—
GigabitEthernet 1/2 interface (inside)
—
Management 1/1 interface (for the ASA Firepower module)
—
Your computer
Note:
You can connect inside and management on the same network because the management interface acts
like a separate device that belongs only to the ASA Firepower module.
2.
Connect the GigabitEthernet 1/1 (outside) interface to your WAN device, for example, your cable modem.
Note:
If the cable modem supplies an outside IP address that is on 192.168.1.0/24 or 192.168.10.0/24, then
you must change the ASA configuration to use a different IP address. Interface IP addresses, HTTPS (ASDM)
access, and DHCP server settings can all be changed using the Startup Wizard. If you change the IP address
to which you are connected to ASDM, you will be disconnected when you finish the wizard. You must
reconnect to the new IP address.
4. Power On the ASA
1.
Attach the power cable to the ASA and connect it to an electrical outlet.
The power turns on automatically when you plug in the power cable. There is no power button.
2.
Check the Power LED on the back of the ASA; if it is solid green, the device is powered on.
3.
Check the Status LED on the back of the ASA; after it is solid green, the system has passed power-on
diagnostics.
5. Enable the Wireless Access Point (ASA 5506W-X)
The ASA 5506W-X wireless access point is disabled by default. Connect to the access point GUI so you can
enable the wireless radios and configure the SSID and security settings.
Must set to 192.168.1.2
