ASA 5506

[tltech]

Hi,

I have a ASA 5506 that list show version like:

show ver

Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 9.8(3)8
Firepower Extensible Operating System Version 2.2(2.97)
Device Manager Version 7.9(2)152

And another ASA 5506 that list show ver like this:

show ver

Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 9.4(4)24
Device Manager Version 7.9(2)152

Why i am seeing 'Firepower Extensible Operating System Version 2.2(2.97)' on the new ASA?

Hello tltech,

the new ASA has probably installed a firepower service module that runs the firepower software.

Hope to help

Hi,

I did a ASA upgrade from '9.4(4)24' to '9.8(3)8' and then 'Firepower Extensible Operating System Version 2.2(2.97)' showed up automatically. It seems to be included in later ASA software and is auto installed.
