By default, the adaptive security appliance Management interface is configured with
a default DHCP address pool. This configuration enables a client on the inside
network to obtain a DHCP address from the adaptive security appliance to connect to
the appliance. Administrators can then configure and manage the adaptive security
appliance using ASDM. Based on your network security policy, you should also
consider configuring the adaptive security appliance to deny all ICMP traffic through
the outside interface or any other interface that is necessary.

The Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM) is a feature-rich graphical
interface that enables you to manage and monitor the adaptive security appliance.
