Initial configuration of an ASA 5510

Hello everyone.

I recently purchased a 5510 to practice with for the CCNA security exam and I'm in a little bit of a rut of confusion and maybe it's because I'm thinking from a layer 2 perspective.

I have an soho isp device with the IP address 192.168.1.254 and an ASA that currently as no config. I give it a name and go to the default ASDM address 192.168.1.1 I then go to the configuration tab and the interfaces section. And this is where I'm confused.

To me it would make sense that if I have an inside interface on eth0/1 with a security level of 100. It should be able to communicate with the outside interface eth 0/0 that has a security level of 0. What I'm unsure about is how a default gateway is set on an ASA.
