Access the FTD and FXOS CLI
Use the command-line interface (CLI) to set up the system and do basic system troubleshooting. You cannot
configure policies through a CLI session. You can access the CLI by connecting to the console port.
You can also access the FXOS CLI for troubleshooting purposes.
You can alternatively SSH to the Management interface of the FTD device. Unlike a console session, the SSH
session defaults to the FTD CLI, from which you can connect to the FXOS CLI using the
connect fxos
command. You can later connect to the address on a data interface if you open the interface for SSH connections.
SSH access to data interfaces is disabled by default. This procedure describes console port access, which
defaults to the FXOS CLI.
Note
Procedure
Step 1
To log into the CLI, connect your management computer to the console port. The Firepower 2100 ships with
a DB-9 to RJ-45 serial cable, so you will need a third party serial-to-USB cable to make the connection. Be
sure to install any necessary USB serial drivers for your operating system. The console port defaults to the
FXOS CLI. Use the following serial settings:
• 9600 baud
• 8 data bits
• No parity
• 1 stop bit
You connect to the FXOS CLI. Log in to the CLI using the
admin
username and the password you set at
initial setup (the default is
Admin123
).
Example:
firepower login: admin
