You would need to configure the IP Address of the IPS module first via the "setup" command once you session into the IPS.

The management port on the IPS also needs to be connected to your network for you to be able to manage it via GUI (HTTPS).

Here is the configuration guide to setup the IPS module for your reference:

Hope this helps.

1. Default password is cisco, however if someone has changed that to something else, then you would need to reset the password. For the version of IPS currently installed (6.0.4(E1)), you can't perform password reset from the ASA, so you would need to re-image the IPS, and since you are re-imaging it, you might as well re-image it to the latest version of software, ie: 7.0.5(E4).

2. You can only run "setup" once you are "session" into the IPS module. You can't run "setup" from the ASA prompt.

3. The version of IPS that you are running, does not allow password recovery from the ASA command line. You would need to follow my step 1 above.

4. To download the software, you would need to have CCO ID (cisco.com ID), and your CCO ID needs to be linked to a Smartnet Contract. Otherwise, you can obtain it from the reseller/partner where you purchase the ASA/IPS module from.
