Default Settings

Default Security Level
The default security level is 0. If you name an interface “inside” and you do not set the security level
explicitly, then the ASA sets the security level to 100.
Note
If you change the security level of an interface, and you do not want to wait for existing connections to
time out before the new security information is used, you can clear the connections using the
clear local-host command.
