[c-nsp] ASA VPN/AnyConnect Licensing

​Hello,

I'm also a little bit confused with this licence.

What I don't really understand how cisco can even know the number of
employees that would require a VPN connection ? They can't check this
number so is it honor based ?
And if I buy the 25 per user licences, how many concurrent vpn connections
would I have on an ASA 5506 ?

Regards,
