Hi<br />
Cisco ASA 5506 X, I mistakenly deleted the boot file - I meant to delete the ASDM version :-). So I can only boot into rommon. I have seen many articles about using tftp in rommon to copy an image but the problem I have is that the ASA interfaces are down. No link light. My Ethernet cable shows as not connected, so my TFTP server is not listening. I have tried using a normal patch cable directly between my PC and ASA, also plugging both interfaces into a switch.<br />
<br />
Does anyone know how to fix this?<br />
<br />
Thanks very much.<br />
<br />

ASA lost boot image

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

Cisco PIX is a dedicated hardware firewall appliance; the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) is a firewall and anti-malware security appliance that provides unified threat management and protection the PIX does not. Other Cisco devices and systems include routers, switches, storage networking, wireless and the software and hardware for PIX Firewall Manager (PFM), PIX Device Manager (PDM) and Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM).
