[c-nsp] ASA VPN/AnyConnect Licensing

Hello Ulrik,

this has puzzled me for some time. When you purchase the license, you
can activate it on 99999 devices, as that is how many licenses you get.
Do you know if/how does Cisco even enforce the limit across the board?

Best regards,

Jan

These are not bound to a specific HW, they are bound to the company/organization. This means that it doesn't matter how many users that actually connect to each office ASA, you only have to keep track of the total number of VPN users in the organization.

The AnyConnect ordering guide [1] shows SKU's for AnyConnect Plus/Apex/VPN-Only licenses, but the smallest license looks like it is for 25-50 users.  This is overkill for my particular application because I only need AnyConnect Plus (or VPN-Only) for 1-5 users.
