Installation and Removal Instructions
Step 3

Check the indicators. If the ASA 5500 AIP SSM is properly installed, the POWER indicator is solid
green and the STATUS indicator is flashing green. You can also verify that the ASA 5500 AIP SSM is
online using the show module 1 command.
Step 8
Initialize the ASA 5500 AIP SSM.
Step 9
