This section describes how to connect the appropriate cables to the Console,
Auxiliary, Management, copper Ethernet, and fiber Ethernet ports.
To connect cables to the network interfaces, perform the following steps:
Place the chassis on a flat, stable surface, or in a rack (if you are rack-mounting it).
Connect to the Management port.
The adaptive security appliance has a dedicated interface for device management
that is referred to as the Management0/0 port. The Management0/0 port is a Fast
Ethernet interface. This port is similar to the Console port, but the Management0/0
port only accepts incoming traffic to the adaptive security appliance.
You can configure any interface to be a management-only interface using
Note
the management-only command. You can also disable management-only
mode on the management interface. For more information about this
command, see the management-only command in the Cisco ASA 5500
Series Command Reference.
