Changing the Management IP Address

Before you begin

You can change the management IP address on the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis from the FXOS CLI.


Note

After changing the management IP address, you will need to reestablish any connections to Firepower Chassis Manager or the FXOS CLI using the new address.


Procedure


Step 1

Connect to the FXOS CLI (see Accessing the FXOS CLI).

Step 2

To configure an IPv4 management IP address:

  1. Set the scope for fabric-interconnect a:

    Firepower-chassis# scope fabric-interconnect a

  2. To view the current management IP address, enter the following command:

    Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect # show

  3. Enter the following command to configure a new management IP address and gateway:

    Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect # set out-of-band ip ip_address netmask network_mask gw gateway_ip_address

  4. Commit the transaction to the system configuration:

    Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect* # commit-buffer

Step 3

To configure an IPv6 management IP address:

  1. Set the scope for fabric-interconnect a:

    Firepower-chassis# scope fabric-interconnect a

  2. Set the scope for management IPv6 configuration:

    Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect # scope ipv6-config

  3. To view the current management IPv6 address, enter the following command:

    Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect/ipv6-config # show ipv6-if

  4. Enter the following command to configure a new management IP address and gateway:

    Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect/ipv6-config # set out-of-band ipv6 ipv6_address ipv6-prefix prefix_length ipv6-gw gateway_address

    Note 

    Only IPv6 Global Unicast addresses are supported as the chassisʼs IPv6 management address.

  5. Commit the transaction to the system configuration:

    Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect/ipv6-config* # commit-buffer


Example

The following example configures an IPv4 management interface and gateway:


Firepower-chassis# scope fabric-interconnect a
Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect # show

Fabric Interconnect:
    ID   OOB IP Addr     OOB Gateway     OOB Netmask     OOB IPv6 Address OOB IPv6 Gateway Prefix Operability
    ---- --------------- --------------- --------------- ---------------- ---------------- ------ -----------
    A    192.0.2.112     192.0.2.1       255.255.255.0   ::               ::               64     Operable
Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect # set out-of-band ip 192.0.2.111 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.0.2.1
Warning: When committed, this change may disconnect the current CLI session
Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect* #commit-buffer
Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect #


The following example configures an IPv6 management interface and gateway:


Firepower-chassis# scope fabric-interconnect a
Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect # scope ipv6-config
Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect/ipv6-config # show ipv6-if

Management IPv6 Interface:
    IPv6 Address                        Prefix     IPv6 Gateway
    ----------------------------------- ---------- ------------
    2001::8998                          64         2001::1
Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect/ipv6-config # set out-of-band ipv6 2001::8999 ipv6-prefix 64 ipv6-gw 2001::1
Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect/ipv6-config* # commit-buffer
Firepower-chassis /fabric-interconnect/ipv6-config #

Changing the Application Management IP

You can change the management IP address on the application(s) attached to your Firepower 4100/9300 chassis from the FXOS CLI. To do so, you must first change the IP information at the FXOS platform level, then change the IP information at the application level.


Note

Changing the application management IP will result in a service interruption.


Procedure


Step 1

Connect to the FXOS CLI. (See Accessing the FXOS CLI).

Step 2

Scope to the logical device:

scope ssa

scope logical-device logical_device_name

Step 3

Scope to the management bootstrap and configure the new management bootstrap parameters. Note that there are differences between deployments:

For standalone configuration of an ASA logical device:

  1. Enter the logical device management bootstrap:

    scope mgmt-bootstrap asa
  2. Enter the IP mode for the slot:

    scope ipv4_or_6 slot_number default

  3. (IPv4 only) Set the new IP address:

    set ip ipv4_address mask network_mask

  4. (IPv6 only) Set the new IP address:

    set ip ipv6_address prefix-length prefix_length_number

  5. Set the gateway address:

    set gateway gateway_ip_address

  6. Commit the configuration:

    commit-buffer

For a clustered configuration of ASA logical devices:

  1. Enter the cluster management bootstrap:

    scope cluster-bootstrap asa
  2. (IPv4 only) Set the new virtual IP:

    set virtual ipv4 ip_address mask network_mask

  3. (IPv6 only) Set the new virtual IP:

    set virtual ipv6 ipv6_address prefix-length prefix_length_number

  4. Set the new IP pool:

    set ip pool start_ip end_ip

  5. Set the gateway address:

    set gateway gateway_ip_address

  6. Commit the configuration:

    commit-buffer

For standalone and clustered configurations of Firepower Threat Defense:

  1. Enter the logical device management bootstrap:

    scope mgmt-bootstrap ftd
  2. Enter the IP mode for the slot:

    scope ipv4_or_6 slot_number firepower

  3. (IPv4 only) Set the new IP address:

    set ip ipv4_address mask network_mask

  4. (IPv6 only) Set the new IP address:

    set ip ipv6_address prefix-length prefix_length_number

  5. Set the gateway address:

    set gateway gateway_ip_address

  6. Commit the configuration:

    commit-buffer

Note 
For a clustered configuration, you must set the new IP address for each application attached to the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis. If you have an inter-chassis cluster or a HA configuration, you must repeat these steps for each application on both chassis.
Step 4

Clear the management bootstrap information for each application:

  1. Scope to ssa mode:

    scope ssa

  2. Scope to the slot:

    scope slot slot_number

  3. Scope to the application instance:

    scope app-instance asa_or_ftd

  4. Clear the management bootstrap information:

    clear-mgmt-bootstrap

  5. Commit the configuration:

    commit-buffer

Step 5

Disable the application:

disable

commit-buffer

Note 
For a clustered configuration, you must clear and disable the management bootstrap information for each application attached to the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis. If you have an inter-chassis cluster or a HA configuration, you must repeat these steps for each application on both chassis.
Step 6

When the application is offline and the slot comes online again, re-enable the application.

  1. Scope back to ssa mode:

    scope ssa

  2. Scope to the slot:

    scope slot slot_number

  3. Scope to the application instance:

    scope app-instance asa_or_ftd

  4. Enable the application:

    enable

  5. Commit the configuration:

    commit-buffer

Note 
For a clustered configuration, you must repeat these steps to re-enable each application attached to the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis. If you have an inter-chassis cluster or a HA configuration, you must repeat these steps for each application on both chassis.

Changing the Firepower 4100/9300 Chassis Name

You can change the name used for your Firepower 4100/9300 chassis from the FXOS CLI.

Procedure


Step 1

Connect to the FXOS CLI (see Accessing the FXOS CLI).

Step 2

Enter the system mode:

Firepower-chassis-A# scope system

Step 3

To view the current name:

Firepower-chassis-A /system # show

Step 4

To configure a new name:

Firepower-chassis-A /system # set name device_name

Step 5

Commit the transaction to the system configuration:

Firepower-chassis-A /fabric-interconnect* # commit-buffer


Example

The following example changes the devices name:


Firepower-chassis-A# scope system
Firepower-chassis-A /system # set name New-name
Warning: System name modification changes FC zone name and redeploys them non-disruptively
Firepower-chassis-A /system* # commit-buffer
Firepower-chassis-A /system # show

Systems:
    Name       Mode        System IP Address System IPv6 Address
    ---------- ----------- ----------------- -------------------
    New-name   Stand Alone 192.168.100.10    ::
New-name-A /system #

Install a Trusted Identity Certificate

After initial configuration, a self-signed SSL certificate is generated for use with the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis web application. Because that certificate is self-signed, client browsers do not automatically trust it. The first time a new client browser accesses the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis web interface, the browser will throw an SSL warning, requiring the user to accept the certificate before accessing the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis. You can use the following procedure to generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) using the FXOS CLI and install the resulting identity certificate for use with the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis. This identity certificate allows a client browser to trust the connection, and bring up the web interface with no warnings.

Procedure


Step 1

Connect to the FXOS CLI. (See Accessing the FXOS CLI).

Step 2

Enter the security module:

scope security

Step 3

Create a keyring:

create keyring keyring_name

Step 4

Set a modulus size for the private key:

set modulus size

Step 5

Commit the configuration:

commit-buffer

Step 6

Configure the CSR fields. The certificate can be generated with basic options (for example, a subject-name), and optionally more advanced options that allow information like locale and organization to be embedded in the certificate. Note that when you configure the CSR fields, the system prompts for a certificate password.

create certreq certreq subject_name

password

set country country

set state state

set locality locality

set org-name organization_name

set org-unit-name organization_unit_name

set subject-name subject_name

Step 7

Commit the configuration:

commit-buffer

Step 8

Export the CSR to provide to your certificate authority. The certificate authority uses the CSR to create your identity certificate.

  1. Show the full CSR:

    show certreq

  2. Copy the output starting with (and including) "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----", ending with (and including) "-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----":

    Example:

    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----

    -----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
    
    
Step 9

Exit the certreq mode:

exit

Step 10

Exit the keyring mode:

exit

Step 11

Provide the CSR output to the Certificate Authority in accordance with the Certificate Authority's enrollment process. If the request is successful, the Certificate Authority sends back an identity certificate that has been digitally signed using the CA's private key.

Step 12

Create a new trustpoint to hold the identity certificate chain.

Note 
All identity certificates must be in Base64 format to be imported into FXOS. If the identity certificate chain received from the Certificate Authority is in a different format, you must first convert it with an SSL tool such as OpenSSL.

create trustpoint trustpoint_name

Step 13

Enter the identity certificate chain you received from the Certificate Authority in step 11, following the instructions on screen.

Note 
For a Certificate Authority that uses intermediate certificates, the root and intermediate certificates must be combined. In a text file, paste the root certificate at the top, followed by each intermediate certificate in the chain, including all BEGIN CERTIFICATE and END CERTIFICATE flags. Copy and paste that entire text block into the trustpoint.

set certchain

Example:

firepower /security/trustpoint* # set certchain

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

    Zeroized: No


What to do next

To verify that the new trusted certificate is presented, navigate to the Firepower Chassis Manager by entering https://<FQDN_or_IP>/ in the address bar of a web browser.

Note

Browsers also verify the subject-name of a certificate against the input in the address bar. If the certificate is issued to the fully qualified domain name, it must be accessed that way in the browser. If it is accessed via IP address, a different SSL error is thrown (Common Name Invalid) even if the trusted certificate is used.

Pre-Login Banner

With a pre-login banner, when a user logs into Firepower Chassis Manager, the system displays the banner text and the user must click OK on the message screen before the system prompts for the username and password. If a pre-login banner is not configured, the system goes directly to the username and password prompt.

When a user logs into the FXOS CLI, the system displays the banner text, if configured, before it prompts for the password.

Firepower-chassis /security/banner/pre-login-banner* # set message

Launches a dialog for entering the pre-login banner message text.

Step 6

At the prompt, type a pre-login banner message. You can enter any standard ASCII character in this field. You can enter multiple lines of text with each line having up to 192 characters. Press Enter between lines.

On the line following your input, type ENDOFBUF and press Enter to finish.

Press Ctrl and C to cancel out of the set message dialog.

Step 7

Commit the transaction to the system configuration:

Firepower-chassis /security/banner/pre-login-banner* # commit-buffer

Rebooting the Firepower 4100/9300 Chassis

Procedure


Step 1

Enter chassis mode:

scope chassis 1

Step 2

Enter the following command to reboot the chassis:

reboot [reason] [no-prompt]

Note 

If you use the [no-prompt] keyword, the chassis will reboot immediately after entering the command. If you do not use the [no-prompt] keyword, the system will not reboot until you enter the commit-buffer command.

The system will gracefully shut down any logical devices configured on the system and then power down each security module/engine before finally powering down and then restarting the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis. This process takes approximately 15-20 minutes.
Step 3

To monitor the reboot process:

scope chassis 1

show fsm status


Powering Off the Firepower 4100/9300 Chassis

Procedure


Step 1

Enter chassis mode:

scope chassis 1

Step 2

Enter the following command to power down the chassis:

shutdown [reason] [no-prompt]

Note 

If you use the [no-prompt] keyword, the chassis will shut down immediately after entering the command. If you do not use the [no-prompt] keyword, the system will not shut down until you enter the commit-buffer command.

The system will gracefully shut down any logical devices configured on the system and then power down each security module/engine before finally powering down the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis. This process takes approximately 15-20 minutes. After the chassis has successfully shut down, you can then physically unplug the power on the chassis.
Step 3

To monitor the shutdown process:

scope chassis 1

show fsm status


Restoring the Factory Default Configuration

You can use the FXOS CLI to restore your Firepower 4100/9300 chassis to factory default configuration.


Note

This process erases all user configuration from the chassis including any logical device configuration. After completing this procedure, you will need to reconfigure the system (see Initial Configuration Using Console Port).


Procedure


Step 1

(Optional) The erase configuration command does not remove the Smart License configuration from the chassis. If you also want to remove the Smart License configuration, perform the following steps:

scope license

deregister

Deregistering the Firepower 4100/9300 chassis removes the device from your account. All license entitlements and certificates on the device are removed.

Step 2

Connect to the local-management shell:

connect local-mgmt

Step 3

Enter the following command to erase all user configuration from your Firepower 4100/9300 chassis and restore the chassis to its original factory default configuration:

erase configuration

The system prompts you to verify that you are sure you want to erase all user configuration.
Step 4

Confirm that you want to erase the configuration by entering yes at the command prompt.

The system will erase all user configuration from your Firepower 4100/9300 chassis and then reboot the system.
