Removing and Installing SSPs
The ASA 5585-X comes with a core Security Services Processor (SSP) already installed (SSP-10,
SSP-20, SSP-40, or SSP-60). You can install an additional SSP (core SSP, IPS SSP, ASA CX SSP, or
FirePOWER SSP) in slot 1.
For a matrix describing which module configurations are allowed, see the
ASA Module Compatibility
table.
Note
Feature limitations may apply to dual SSPs. Refer to your configuration guide for more information.
The add-on SSP will not run without the core SSP installed. The add-on SSP must be installed in the
upper slot (slot 1), with the core SSP in the bottom slot (slot 0). You must power off the ASA 5585-X to
remove and install SSPs; the SSPs are not hot-swappable.
