The only way to get the software for your module is downloading it via the Software Center from Cisco.com. You'll need a Smartnet contract or proper CCO account to access the downloads.
You will be able to reimage the module with 6.0 software, but it is advised to reimage it with the most basic image. You can always upgrade from there!
Information about reimaging can be found in the following document:
Hope this information helps, if it does; please rate!

ANY HELP PLEASEEEE ?? stuck badly in this situation..
Device ASA 5520
IOS running 7.2(2)
IPS module AIP-SSM-10
IPS software version 5.0(2)S152.0
Problem
IPS module locked out. dont know the session password to the module.
Tried the hw-module module 1 reset password command but it turns out it is supported by IPS software version 6 only.
Experts tells me to Reimage the module.
Problem agian... i dont have the system image of the module... no CD media no tftp backup.
anyyway to reset the IPS module to factory default???? (not using the module right now)
ALSO CAN ANY ONE CLEAR THIS CONFUSION ... can i reimage using IP software version 6.0 ( ifi can get it) ?? or do i need 5.0 then upgrade to 6.0 ???
05-07-2007 11:54 PM
hw-module module 1 recover boot is the command your looking for. For re imaging the whole this you can do it directly to 6. No need to upgrade to 5 and then to 6

I have same problem when i tried to recovery password for IPS AIP-SSM 10.
I upgraded to IOS 7.21, IPS version 6.02 but i can not type the command : hw-module module 1 password-reset.
Does any one know why ?
05-09-2007 01:19 AM
The command "hw-module module 1 password-reset" is only supported when the hardware module is in the Up state and supports password reset.
More information on this command can be found here:

Thank Michael, but how to show which module is supported "password-reset" command as guided?
This is output of command screen:
====================================
ciscoasa# hw-module module 1 ?
recover Configure recovery of this module
reload Reload the module
reset Reset the module
shutdown Shut down the module
====================================
Can you help to reset to default password in this case ?
Thanks

Strange, i get the following with a AIP-SSM10 with software 6.01(E1):
---------------------------------------------
ASA# hw-module module 1 ?
password-reset Reset the CLI password on the module
recover Configure recovery of this module
reload Reload the module
reset Reset the module
shutdown Shut down the module
ASA# hw-module module 1 password-reset
Reset the password on module in slot 1? [confirm]
---------------------------------------------
You could always try to reset the module entirely, but take notice that you will erase the configuration of the module, thus losing all your signature settings.

Khan if u are not getting the password-reset command then ur IOS does not support this command... if i am correct IOS7.2(2) onwards supports the password rest. cause i upgraded to 7.2(2) recently and then only i got this command..
however when i try to reset the password of the module its rejects me giving..
ASA# hw-module module 1 ?
password-reset Reset the CLI password on the module
recover Configure recovery of this module
reload Reload the module
reset Reset the module
shutdown Shut down the module
ASA# hw-module module 1 password-reset
Reset the password on module in slot 1? [confirm]
The SSM application version does not support password reset
Failed to reset the password on the module in slot 1
cause my IPS software is 5.0 .. 6.0 would solve my problems.. :p
05-09-2007 05:31 PM
yes, my IOS is running version 7.21 then it is maybe not support "password-reset" command,
However when i do re-image ips software then ips module is restored default factory,
So I tried to find out which way to reset password simply.
Thanks
