Configuring the ASA IPS module

Detailed Steps

(ASA 5505) Configuring Basic Network Settings

An ASA IPS module on the ASA 5505 does not have any external interfaces. You can configure a VLAN
to allow access to an internal IPS management IP address over the backplane. By default, VLAN 1 is
enabled for IPS management. You can only assign one VLAN as the management VLAN. This section
describes how to change the management VLAN and IP address if you do not want to use the default. It
also describes how to change the allowed hosts and gateway. See the

“Default Settings” section on

page 58-6

for more information about defaults.

Note

Perform this configuration on the ASA 5505, not on the ASA IPS module.

Prerequisites

When you change the IPS VLAN and management address from the default, be sure to also configure
the matching ASA VLAN and switch port(s) according to the procedures listed in

Chapter 7, “Starting

Interface Configuration (ASA 5505).”

You must define and configure the VLAN for the ASA so the IPS

management interface is accessible on the network.
