Installing the System Image for the ASA 5500-X IPS SSP
Note Be sure the TFTP server that you specify can transfer files up to 60 MB in size.
Note The CLI output is an example of what your configuration may look like. It will not match exactly due to
the optional setup choices, sensor model, and IPS 7.1 version you have installed.
To install the system image on the ASA 5500-X IPS SSP, follow these steps:
Step 1 Download the IPS system image file corresponding to your ASA platform to the tftp root directory of a
TFTP server that is accessible from your adaptive security appliance.
Note Make sure you can access the TFTP server location from the network connected to the Ethernet
port of the adaptive security appliance.
Step 2 Log in to the adaptive security appliance.
Step 3 Enter enable mode.
asa> enable
Step 4 Copy the IPS image to the disk0 flash of the adaptive security appliance.
asa# copy tftp://192.0.2.0/directory/IPS-5545-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.1-3-E4.aip disk0:
Step 5 Image the ASA 5500-X IPS SSP.
asa# sw-module module ips recover configure image
disk0:/IPS-SSP_5545-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.1-3-E4.aip
Step 6 Execute the recovery. This transfers the image from the TFTP server to the ASA 5500-X IPS SSP and
restarts it.
asa# sw-module module ips recover boot
Step 7 Periodically check the recovery until it is complete.
