Power On The Device - Cisco Firepower 1010 Getting Started Manual

Power On the Device

• Management 1/1—Connect your management computer directly to Management 1/1. Or connect
Step 2
Connect the outside network to the Ethernet 1/1 interface.
For Smart Software Licensing, the ASA needs internet access so that it can access the License Authority.
Step 3 Connect inside devices to the remaining inside switch ports, Ethernet 1/2 through 1/8.
Ethernet 1/7 and 1/8 are PoE+ ports.
Power On the Device
System power is controlled by the power cord; there is no power button.
Before you begin
It's important that you provide reliable power for your device (using an uninterruptable power supply (UPS),
for example). Loss of power without first shutting down can cause serious file system damage. There are
many processes running in the background all the time, and losing power does not allow the graceful shutdown
of your system.
Procedure
Step 1 Attach the power cord to the device, and connect it to an electrical outlet.
The power turns on automatically when you plug in the power cord.
Step 2
Check the Power LED on the back or top of the device; if it is solid green, the device is powered on.

Management 1/1 to your management network; make sure your management computer is on the
management network, because only clients on that network can access the ASA. Management 1/1 has a
default IP address (192.168.45.1) and also runs a DHCP server to provide IP addresses to clients (including
the management computer), so make sure these settings do not conflict with any existing management
network settings (see Firepower 1010 Default Configuration, on page
If you need to change the Management 1/1 IP address from the default, you must also cable your
management computer to the console port. See
165).
