Step 3 Check the Status LED on the back or top of the device; after it is solid green, the system has passed power-on
diagnostics.
(Optional) Change Management Network Settings at the CLI
If you cannot use the default management IP address, then you can connect to the console port and perform
initial setup at the CLI, including setting the Management IP address, gateway, and other basic networking
settings. You can only configure the Management interface settings; you cannot configure inside or outside
interfaces, which you can later configure in the GUI.
You cannot repeat the CLI setup script unless you clear the configuration; for example, by reimaging. However,
all of these settings can be changed later at the CLI using configure network commands. See the FTD
command reference.
Note
Procedure
Step 1 Connect to the FTD console port. See Access the FTD and FXOS CLI, on page 81 for more information.
Log in with the admin user and the default password, Admin123.
You connect to the FXOS CLI. The first time you log in, you are prompted to change the password. This
password is also used for the FTD login for SSH.
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 for the reimage procedure.
Note
Example:
firepower login: admin
Password: Admin123
Successful login attempts for user 'admin' : 1
[...]
Hello admin. You must change your password.
Enter new password: ********
Confirm new password: ********
Your password was updated successfully.
