Connecting Interface Cables
The adaptive security appliance has a dedicated interface for device management
that is referred to as the Management0/0 port. The Management0/0 port is a Fast
Ethernet interface. This port is similar to the Console port, but the Management0/0
port only accepts incoming traffic to the adaptive security appliance.
