Install the Active System Console (ASC) to retrieve debugging information about the appliance hardware.

NOTE: We recommend that, rather than using the Active System Console to retrieve debugging information for your hardware, you work with the Remote Management Module to obtain this information.

Log on to the appliance from a system console, using SSH.
Run the following command

asc-enable
When prompted, create an administrator password.

If a message on strong password setting is displayed, respond according to your requirements.

After the password has been set, the Active System Console is started.
Use a web browser to access the ASC user interface under:

https://<IP address of the monitored appliance>:9393

When you start the appliance next time, the Active System Console is automatically started with it.

You can disable the Active System Console, using the asc-disable command.

For more information, see the help information on the user interface of the Active System Console and the documentation that is provided with the hardware.
