Reimage the Firepower 2100 to ASA or Firepower Threat Defense
manager, either Firepower Management Center or Firepower Device Manager. However, this procedure is
useful for reimaging the FTD to a new version before you add it to a manager.
This task applies to a standalone ASA or FTD. If you want to upgrade a failover pair, see the
Upgrade Guide
upgrade process typically takes between 20 and 30 minutes.
Note
This procedure does not affect the FXOS login credentials.
Before you begin
Make sure the image you want to upload is available on an FTP, SCP, SFTP, or TFTP server, or a USB drive.
Procedure
Step 1
Unlicense the ASA or FTD.
• If you are managing the FTD from the Firepower Management Center, delete the device from the
Management Center.
• If you are managing the FTD using Firepower Device Manager, be sure to unregister the device from
the Smart Software Licensing server, either from the Firepower Device Manager or from the Smart
Software Licensing server.
• Unregister the ASA from the Smart Software Licensing server, either from the ASA CLI/ASDM or from
the Smart Software Licensing server.
Step 2
Connect to the FXOS CLI, either the console port (preferred) or using SSH. If you connect at the console
port, you access the FXOS CLI immediately. Enter the FXOS login credentials. The default username is
admin and the default password is Admin123.
If you connect to the ASA/FTD management IP address using SSH, enter connect fxos to access FXOS.
On the ASA, you can also SSH directly to the FXOS management IP address.
Step 3
Download the package to the chassis.
a) Enter firmware mode.
