the Successful Connection with FMC dialog box, after which you will be disconnected from FDM.

Complete the FTD Initial Configuration Using the CLI

Connect to the FTD CLI to perform initial setup, including setting the Management IP address, gateway, and
other basic networking settings using the setup wizard. The dedicated Management interface is a special
interface with its own network settings. In 6.7 and later: If you do not want to use the Management interface
for FMC access, you can use the CLI to configure a data interface instead. You will also configure FMC
communication settings. When you perform initial setup using FDM (7.1 and later), all interface configuration
completed in FDM is retained when you switch to FMC for management, in addition to the Management and
FMC access interface settings. Note that other default configuration settings, such as the access control policy,
are not retained.
Procedure
Step 1
Connect to the FTD CLI, either from the console port or using SSH to the Management interface, which
obtains an IP address from a DHCP server by default. If you intend to change the network settings, we
recommend using the console port so you do not get disconnected.
The console port connects to the FXOS CLI. The SSH session connects directly to the FTD CLI.
Step 2
Log in with the username admin and the password Admin123.
At the console port, you connect to the FXOS CLI. The first time you log in to FXOS, you are prompted to
change the password. This password is also used for the FTD login for SSH.
Note
Example:
If the password was already changed, and you do not know it, you must reimage the device to reset
the password to the default. See the

FXOS troubleshooting guide
Cisco Firepower 2100 Getting Started Guide
for the reimage procedure.
