Configure Console (ILO)

[NOOKALARAMU]

Can somebody please help on the commands to configure console (ilo) IP on Firepower sensor with OS 5.4 version?

[Marvin Rhoads]

Are you asking about the classic FirePOWER appliances (3D series like 7000 and 8000 models)?

If so, please refer to the system installation guide:

http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/security/sourcefire/3d-system/53/Sourcefire_3D_System_Installation_Guide_v53.pdf

Page 221 covers "Setting Up Lights-Out Management". 

More details are also covered in the User Guide here:

Yes it is 7k and 8k series. Can you please give the exact command to assign ILO IP via CLI?

[Marvin Rhoads]

How you setup the ILO depends on what you have access to.

Do you currently have access to the web interface or ssh via the management interface?

[NOOKALARAMU]

I have access only through SSH. No Web UI access.

The command utility is ipmitool. You need to run it as the root user from ssh.

The command usage to set the address is as follows:

root@Sourcefire3D:/Volume/home/admin# ipmitool lan set
