I have a brand new ASA5512-X running 8.6.1, and am trying to do an initial setup using the Quick Start Guide that came with it. However, the Management Interface is not working. I have a PC connected and set to use DHCP, but the port is not active.
I connected a console cable and can see in the config that the interface is shutdown. So I set it to active, and the port is now active, but is not giving out a DHCP address as the guide says it should.
I would like to use the ASDM Startup Wizard to configure this device, so how do I get it to work the way the instructions say it should?
Thanks!

Hello,
Try by console cable to use the commad:
config factory-default
and in case you don't have this:
ssl encryption des-sha1
It should get your ASDM working.
Let me know how this works for you.

Thank you!
The first command worked. Interesting that a brand new device would need to be reset to factory default.
As for the second command, when I added it, ASDM would not work. When I removed that command, ASDM does work.
Thanks again!
