After you set the mode, you need to save the configuration and reload the device. Prior to reloading, you can
set the mode back to the original value without any disruption.
Example:
ciscoasa(config)# fxos mode appliance

(Optional) Change theFXOSandASAManagement IPAddresses
or Gateway
You can change the FXOS management IP address on the Firepower 2100 chassis from the FXOS CLI. The
default address is 192.168.45.45. You can also change the default gateway for FXOS management traffic.
The default gateway is set to 0.0.0.0, which sends FXOS traffic over the backplane to be routed through the
ASA data interfaces. If you want to route traffic to a router on the Management 1/1 network instead, then you
can change the gateway IP address. You must also change the access list for management connections to
match your new network. If you change the gateway from the default 0.0.0.0 (the ASA data interfaces), then
you will not be able to access FXOS on a data interface nor will FXOS be able to initiate traffic on a data
interface (see
Typically, the FXOS Management 1/1 IP address will be on the same network as the ASA Management 1/1
IP address, so this procedure also shows how to change the ASA IP address on the ASA.
Before you begin
• After you change the FXOS management IP address, you need to reestablish any Firepower Chassis
• Because the DHCP server is enabled by default on Management 1/1, you must disable DHCP before you
