Hi Ahmed-
If you purchased IPS subscription for the FirePOWER (Sourcefire) services for the ASA then the Firesight Management Console is a must. The FireSight console is where you would:
- Install licenses
- Configure Sourcefire sensors
- Collect logs
- Run reports
- Etc
Without the FireSIGHT management console the Sourcefire Sensors will not be usable.
I hope this helps!
