Update mgmt IP on FTD


1. Disable management of the device in FMC. Do that via Device Management > edit the Device > Device tab > move slider next to management section.

2. Change the address on the device directly using "configure network ..." command from the cli.

3. Edit the management address in FMC from the same place you disabled management. Then move the slider back to enable management.
