ASA versions, image names and Licensing. Adam Makovecz. Botnet With ASA 8. Assuming he do not yet own a ASA, but want the same clientless VPN connections plus mobile device connectivity, what part number does he need?
For what it's worth, the Mobile license works with either. Troubleshooting and FAQ First of all you need to be sure that you used the correct activation-key for the correct device. Lost activation-key: The activation-key can be regenerated by licensing team. May be licensing team could request from you different information like contract number in case. License key is correct, but not take effect: If you see the correct activation-key under the "show activation-key", please try to reboot the device.
As Rick correctly noted, separate standalone firewalls do not combine their licenses. Post Reply. Latest Contents. Created by Mitesh Manwatkar on AM. Created by Anupam Pavithran on AM.

That model level determines the license you request. If you later want to change the model level of a unit, you will have to return the current license and request a new license at the correct model level.
If you stop using a license, you must return the license by generating a return code on the ASAv, and then entering that code into the Smart Software Manager. Make sure you follow the return process correctly so you do not pay for unused licenses. Permanent license reservation is not supported for the Azure hypervisor. If your devices cannot access the internet for security reasons, you can optionally install a local Smart Software Manager satellite also known as On-Prem server as a virtual machine VM.
The satellite provides a subset of Smart Software Manager functionality, and allows you to provide essential licensing services for all your local devices. Only the satellite needs to connect periodically to the main License Authority to sync your license usage. You can sync on a schedule or you can sync manually. For more information, see Smart Software Manager satellite. If you need additional licenses, you can transfer an unused license from another virtual account. You can also transfer devices between virtual accounts.
For example, for a Firepower chassis with 3 security modules, the chassis counts as one device, but the modules use 3 separate licenses. The ASAv does not support an evaluation mode. Before the ASAv registers with the Licensing Authority, it operates in a severely rate-limited state. The ASA cannot request specific entitlements in this mode; only default entitlements are enabled.
In the ASA, you request entitlements as usual. When the time-based license expires, you need to either renew the time-based license or obtain a permanent license. The following sections include additional information about licenses by type.
Devices that use Smart Licensing do not require any AnyConnect license to be physically applied to the actual platform. The same licenses must still be purchased, and you must still link the Contract number to your Cisco. For more information, see:. Cisco AnyConnect Ordering Guide. However, if you start the AnyConnect client first from a standalone client, for example and then log into the clientless SSL VPN portal, then 2 sessions are used.
For through-the-box traffic, throughput is severely limited until you connect to the License Authority and obtain the Strong Encryption license. If the ASAv becomes out-of-compliance later, as long as the export compliance token was successfully applied, the ASAv will retain the license and not revert to the rate-limited state.
The license is removed if you re-register the ASAv, and export compliance is disabled, or if you restore the ASAv to factory default settings.
If you initially register the ASAv without strong encryption and later add strong encryption, then you must reload the ASAv for the new license to take effect.
For pre Through the box traffic is not allowed until you connect and obtain the Strong Encryption license. If the ASA becomes out-of-compliance later, as long as the export compliance token was successfully applied, the ASA will continue to allow through the box traffic. The license is removed if you re-register the chassis, and export compliance is disabled, or if you restore the chassis to factory default settings.
If you initially register the chassis without strong encryption and later add strong encryption, then you must reload the ASA application for the new license to take effect.
If the ASA becomes out-of-compliance, neither management traffic nor through-traffic requiring this license will be allowed. The DES license cannot be disabled. To prevent the use of DES when you want to only use strong encryption, be sure to configure any relevant commands to use only strong encryption. Some applications might use multiple sessions for a connection. For example, if you configure a phone with a primary and backup Cisco Unified Communications Manager, there are 2 TLS proxy connections.
To view the limits of your model, enter the tls-proxy maximum-sessions? The TLS proxy limit takes precedence over the license limit; if you set the TLS proxy limit to be less than the license, then you cannot use all of the sessions in your license. K8 and K9 refer to whether the license is restricted for export: K8 is unrestricted, and K9 is restricted. If you clear the configuration using the clear configure all command, for example , then the TLS proxy limit is set to the default for your model; if this default is lower than the license limit, then you see an error message to use the tls-proxy maximum-sessions command to raise the limit again in ASDM, use the TLS Proxy pane.
Because the configuration synchronization restores the TLS proxy limit set on the primary unit, you can ignore the warning. You might also use SRTP encryption sessions for your connections:.
For example:. There is no extra cost for the secondary unit. For permanent license reservation, you must purchase separate licenses for each chassis. Each ASA must have the same encryption license. For older Cisco Smart Software Manager satellite deployments, see below. In the ASA licensing configuration, other licenses do not need to match on each failover unit, and you can configure licensing separately on each unit.
Each unit requests its own licenses from the server. The licenses requested by both units are aggregated into a single failover license that is shared by the failover pair, and this aggregated licenese is cached on the standby unit to be used if it becomes the active unit in the future.
Typically, you only need to configure licenses on the primary unit. Standard—Each unit includes the Standard license by default, so for a failover pair, 2 Standard licenses are requested from the server. Context—Each unit can request its own Context license. However, the Standard license includes 10 contexts by default and is present on both units.
The Standard license includes 10 contexts; for 2 units, these licenses add up to 20 contexts. Therefore, the aggregated failover license includes contexts. However, because the platform limit for one unit is , the combined license allows a maximum of contexts only.
In this case, you should only configure the primary Context license to be contexts. Therefore, the aggregated failover license includes 40 contexts. One unit can use 22 contexts and the other unit can use 18 contexts, for example, for a total of Because the platform limit for one unit is , the combined license allows a maximum of contexts; the 40 contexts are within the limit. Strong Encryption 3DES for a pre The clustering feature itself does not require any licenses.
There is no extra cost for data units. The Strong Encryption license is automatically enabled for qualified customers when you apply the registration token. When using the token, each chassis must have the same encryption license.
In the ASA license configuration, you can only configure smart licensing on the control unit. The configuration is replicated to the data units, but for some licenses, they do not use the configuration; it remains in a cached state, and only the control unit requests the license. The licenses are aggregated into a single cluster license that is shared by the cluster units, and this aggregated license is also cached on the data units to be used if one of them becomes the control unit in the future.
Each license type is managed as follows:. Standard—Only the control unit requests the Standard license from the server. Because the data units have the Standard license enabled by default, they do not need to register with the server to use it. Context—Only the control unit requests the Context license from the server. The Standard license includes 10 contexts by default and is present on all cluster members.
You have 6 Firepower modules in the cluster. The Standard license includes 10 contexts; for 6 units, these licenses add up to 60 contexts.
You configure an additional Context license on the control unit. Therefore, the aggregated cluster license includes 80 contexts. Because the platform limit for one module is , the combined license allows a maximum of contexts; the 80 contexts are within the limit. Therefore, you can configure up to 80 contexts on the control unit; each data unit will also have 80 contexts through configuration replication.
You have 3 Firepower units in the cluster. The Standard license includes 10 contexts; for 3 units, these licenses add up to 30 contexts. Therefore, the aggregated cluster license includes contexts. Because the platform limit for one unit is , the combined license allows a maximum of contexts; the contexts are over the limit. Therefore, you can only configure up to contexts on the control unit; each data unit will also have contexts through configuration replication.
In this case, you should only configure the control unit Context license to be contexts. This license is a per-unit entitlement, and each unit requests its own license from the server. This license configuration is replicated to the data units. Any participant with this secret can use the licensing server.
The interval is between 10 and seconds; this value is provided to participants to set how often they should communicate with the server. The default is 30 seconds. Optional Set the port on which the server listens for SSL connections from participants:. The port is between 1 and The default is TCP port Optional Identify the backup server IP address and serial number:.
If the backup server is part of a failover pair, identify the standby unit serial number as well. You can only identify 1 backup server and its optional standby unit. Enable this unit to be the shared licensing server:. Specify the interface on which participants contact the server.
You can repeat this command for as many interfaces as desired. The following example sets the shared secret, changes the refresh interval and port, configures a backup server, and enables this unit as the shared licensing server on the inside interface and dmz interface:. This section enables a shared license participant to act as the backup server if the main server goes down. The backup server must have a shared licensing participant key. Identify the shared licensing server IP address and shared secret:.
If you changed the default port in the server configuration, set the port for the backup server to match. Enable this unit to be the shared licensing backup server:. The following example identifies the license server and shared secret, and enables this unit as the backup shared license server on the inside interface and dmz interface:.
This section configures a shared licensing participant to communicate with the shared licensing server. The participant must have a shared licensing participant key. If you changed the default port in the server configuration, set the port for the participant to match.
Optional If you configured a backup server, enter the backup server address:. The following example sets the license server IP address and shared secret, as well as the backup license server IP address:.
This section describes the licenses available for each model as well as important notes about licenses. This section lists the feature licenses available for each model:. Items that are in italics are separate, optional licenses that can replace the Base or Security Plus, and so on license version. You can mix and match optional licenses.

This section describes how to view license information. This section describes how to view your current license, and for time-based activation keys, how much time the license has left.
See No Payload Encryption Models for more information. Show the permanent license, active time-based licenses, and the running license, which is a combination of the permanent license and active time-based licenses:.
The detail keyword also shows inactive time-based licenses. Example 1: Standalone Unit Output for the show activation-key command. The following is sample output from the show activation-key command for a standalone unit that shows the running license the combined permanent license and time-based licenses , as well as each active time-based license:. Example 2: Standalone Unit Output for show activation-key detail.
The following is sample output from the show activation-key detail command for a standalone unit that shows the running license the combined permanent license and time-based licenses , as well as the permanent license and each installed time-based license active and inactive :.
The following is sample output from the show activation-key detail command for the primary failover unit that shows:. The primary unit license the combined permanent license and time-based licenses. This is the license that is actually running on the ASA. The values in this license that reflect the combination of the primary and secondary licenses are in bold.
The primary unit installed time-based licenses active and inactive. The following is sample output from the show activation-key detail command for the secondary failover unit that shows:. The secondary unit license the combined permanent license and time-based licenses. The secondary installed time-based licenses active and inactive. This unit does not have any time-based licenses, so none display in this sample output.
The following is sample output from the show activation-key command for the primary failover unit that shows:. The following is sample output from the show activation-key command for the secondary failover unit that shows:. To monitor the shared license, enter one of the following commands. Shows shared license statistics. Optional keywords are available only for the licensing server: the detail keyword shows statistics per participant. To limit the display to one participant, use the client keyword.
The backup keyword shows information about the backup server. To clear the shared license statistics, enter the clear shared license command.
The following is sample output from the show shared license command on the license participant:. The following is sample output from the show shared license detail command on the license server:. Shows the licenses installed on the ASA. The show version command also shows license information. Increased interfaces for the Base license on the ASA For the Base license on the ASA , the maximum number of interfaces was increased from 3 plus a management interface to unlimited interfaces.
The maximum number of VLANs for the Security Plus license on the ASA was increased from 5 3 fully functional; 1 failover; one restricted to a backup interface to 20 fully functional interfaces.
In addition, the number of trunk ports was increased from 1 to 8. Now there are 20 fully functional interfaces, you do not need to use the backup interface command to cripple a backup ISP interface; you can use a fully functional interface for it. The backup interface command is still useful for an Easy VPN configuration.
In the Base license, they continue to be used as Fast Ethernet Mbps ports. Use the speed command to change the speed on the interface and use the show interface command to see what speed is currently configured for each interface.
The Advanced Endpoint Assessment license was introduced. As a condition for the completion of a Cisco AnyConnect or clientless SSL VPN connections, the remote computer scans for a greatly expanded collection of antivirus and antispyware applications, firewalls, operating systems, and associated updates.
It also scans for any registry entries, filenames, and process names that you specify. It sends the scan results to the ASA. With an Advanced Endpoint Assessment License, you can enhance Host Scan by configuring an attempt to update noncompliant computers to meet version requirements.
Cisco can provide timely updates to the list of applications and versions that Host Scan supports in a package that is separate from Cisco Secure Desktop. The AnyConnect for Mobile license was introduced.
Support for time-based licenses was introduced. Unified Communications Proxy Sessions license. The UC Proxy sessions license was introduced. All of these applications are licensed under the UC Proxy umbrella, and can be mixed and matched. This feature is not available in Version 8. The Botnet Traffic Filter license was introduced. The Botnet Traffic Filter protects against malware network activity by tracking connections to known bad domains and IP addresses.
The AnyConnect Essentials License was introduced. The AnyConnect client software offers the same set of client features, whether it is enabled by this license or an AnyConnect Premium license.
By default, the ASA uses the AnyConnect Essentials license, but you can disable it to use other licenses by using the webvpn , and then the no anyconnect-essentials command. Mobility Proxy application no longer requires Unified Communications Proxy license.
The ASA X is not supported in 8. Failover licenses no longer need to be identical on each unit. The license used for both units is the combined license from the primary and secondary units. We modified the following commands: show activation-key and show version.
Time-based licenses are now stackable. Multiple time-based licenses active at the same time. You can now install multiple time-based licenses, and have one license per feature active at a time. Discrete activation and deactivation of time-based licenses. You can now activate or deactivate time-based licenses using a command. We modified the following commands: activation-key [ activate deactivate ].
This special image is only supported in 8. Increased contexts for the ASA , , and X. Increased connections for the ASA and X. We increased the firewall connection limits:. The other VPN session limit was increased from 5, to 10, No Payload Encryption hardware for export. Clustering for 2 units is enabled by default in the base license; for the ASA X, you need the Security Plus license. Support for 16 cluster members for the ASA X. The ASA X now supports unit clusters.

PDF - Complete Book Updated: June 4, Related Concepts How Permanent and Time-Based Licenses Combine Time-Based Licenses In addition to permanent licenses, you can purchase time-based licenses or receive an evaluation license that has a time-limit.
How Permanent and Time-Based Licenses Combine When you activate a time-based license, then features from both permanent and time-based licenses combine to form the running license. Note Even when the permanent license is used, if the time-based license is active, it continues to count down. Table 1.
