Return ASA 5505 to factory default

PeriscopeIQ — Tue, 12 Mar 2019 03:01:51 GMT

I purchased a used 5505 on ebay. I already have 2 others purchased new which work fine, and have done all configurations on them via ASDM and have been quite happy.

This one was shipped from ebay locked down completely it seems. I do have console access and have performed the following steps:

write erase

reload

All ports are still marked as shutdown, no ASDM access

Could someone give me commands to run via the console so I can connect to this via ASDM please? Current config is attached.

Thanks.

You can use the factory-default command to set the ASA back to factory default.

In addition to the way by setting the ASA to factory-default you can also run the "setup"-command from the console-session to configure the ASA for ASDM-access. There you can specify all the parameters as you want them. Both ways will work.
