Sessioning to the Module from the ASA

To access the IPS module CLI from the ASA, you can session from the ASA. For software modules, you

can either session to the module (using Telnet) or create a virtual console session. A console session

might be useful if the control plane is down and you cannot establish a Telnet session.
