Hello!
So, to clarify, I did indeed [ESC] factory-reset and also deleted all configurations, rebooted. Gets to firepower# screen.
As always, https://192.168.1.1 and nothing. Now, long ago in the 6.x it was 192.168.1.1, and I know now 7.x use 192.168.95.1, but neither work. I can not even PING the IP..I did also set my Windows IP to be same network. Nothing.
STUPID question, it has been that long... On a fresh format/install of new image, do I need to do anything else to "initiate" the ports etc? I tried the connect ftd, and agreed etc, still nothing.
