Use the ASA CX CLI to configure basic network settings and to troubleshoot the module.
To access the ASA CX software module CLI from the ASA, you can session from the ASA. You can
either session to the module (using Telnet) or create a virtual console session. A console session might
be useful if the control plane is down and you cannot establish a Telnet session. In multiple context

Do not use the session cxsc console command in conjunction with a terminal server where Ctrl-Shift-6,
Note
x is the escape sequence to return to the terminal server prompt. Ctrl-Shift-6, x is also the sequence to
escape the ASA CX console and return to the ASA prompt. Therefore, if you try to exit the ASA CX
console in this situation, you instead exit all the way to the terminal server prompt. If you reconnect the
terminal server to the ASA, the ASA CX console session is still active; you can never exit to the ASA
prompt. You must use a direct serial connection to return the console to the ASA prompt. Use the session
cxsc command instead of the console command when facing this situation.
Telnet session:
session cxsc
When in the ASA CX CLI, to exit back to the ASA CLI, use the exit command, or press
Ctrl-Shift-6, x.
Console session:
session cxsc console
The only way out of a console session is to press Ctrl-Shift-6, x. Logging out of the module leaves
you at the module login prompt.
