An ASA 310-FIPS Stops Processing Traffic
Whenever an ASA 310-FIPS has undergone a reboot (whether
intentionally invoked by the user, or due to a power failure), the device
stops processing SSL traffic. This behavior is perfectly normal, and is due
to the high security demands placed on the ASA 310-FIPS.
To make an ASA 310-FIPS start processing SSL traffic again, log in to the
HSM cards using the HSM-USER iKey associated to each card. Logging
in to the HSM cards will clear the alarms that were set during the reboot,
and the ASA 310-FIPS will accept SSL traffic again.
Follow these steps to log in to the HSM cards:

Action
Log in to the specific ASA 310-FIPS that has undergone a
reboot as the admin or oper user.
login: admin
Password: <enter the admin user password>
Alteon iSD SSL
Software version 7.1
When connecting to the ASA 310-FIPS, you can use a console
connection, or a remote connection (Telnet or SSH, if enabled in
the system configuration).
Note: It is important that you log in to the particular ASA
310-FIPS on which a reboot has occurred, and not to the
Management IP address (MIP) of the cluster.
Log in to each HSM card consecutively by inserting the
correct HSM-USER iKey and providing the associated
password.
Remember that each HSM card requires inserting the specific
HSM-USER iKey that was used when initializing that particular
HSM card. This holds true even if you use the same password
for both HSM-USER iKeys.
