IPS Home Lab setup

[samir khoury]

Hello,

I bought a used IPS 4225 to learn about IPS, I am having problem figuring out how to connect it physically to my home network and be able to access it through the GUI. I searched for about 3 days trying to figure it out but couldn't find anything out there. can someone help me out with a diagram/PICs of what and how it should be setup. 

I did run the setup command and configure it to have 192.168.1.20/24,192.168.1.1 configuration but when I connected the Management interface or the G 0/0 to the network, I am not getting a successful ping.

Like I said I am not knowledgeable about IPS and trying to learn it.

thanks for your support.

hello,

I figured out why I can't ping the management port,  I needed to configure the ACL, so I added this access-list 0.0.0.0/0, and now I can ping it and ssh to it.
now I need to figure out how to get the HTTPS to work.
