Access the ASA Services Module Console
You are prompted for the login password:
ciscoasa passwd:
Example:
Router# session slot 3 processor 1
ciscoasa passwd: cisco
ciscoasa>
For a switch in a VSS, enter the switch argument.
The session slot processor 0 command, which is supported on other services modules, is not supported
on the ASASM; the ASASM does not have a processor 0.
To view the module slot numbers, enter the show module command at the switch prompt.
Enter the login password to the ASASM. Set the password using the passwd command. There is no
default password.
You access user EXEC mode.
Step 2
Access privileged EXEC mode, which is the highest privilege level:
enable
Example:
ciscoasa> enable
Password:
ciscoasa#
Enter the enable password at the prompt. By default, the password is blank.
To exit privileged EXEC mode, enter the disable, exit, or quit command.
Step 3
Access global configuration mode:
configure terminal
To exit global configuration mode, enter the disable, exit, or quit command.
