Cisco AnyConnect Apex and Plus licensing eliminates the need to purchase per headend simultaneous-
connections licenses and dedicated license servers. AnyConnect Apex licenses include all AnyConnect Plus
license functionality, so only one type of license is required for each user. Thus, the number of Plus licenses can
be smaller or greater than the number of Apex licenses. This model allows you to mix license tiers across a single
environment, and it shifts licensing from simultaneous connections to total unique users.
AnyConnect Plus and Apex licenses are available as 12- to 60-month subscriptions, AnyConnect Plus licenses are
also available as perpetual licenses. Software Application Support plus Upgrades (SASU) services are included in
AnyConnect Plus and Apex subscription licenses. For AnyConnect Plus perpetual licenses, as well as AnyConnect
VPN Only, a SASU subscription must be purchased separately.
An active subscription or an active SASU contract is required for all software access and technical support. Please
note that support contracts for the headend termination devices (ASA, ISE, etc.) must be purchased separately.
AnyConnect 4.x licensed customers are also entitled to earlier AnyConnect releases.
Note: The number of licenses needed for AnyConnect Plus or Apex is based on all the possible unique users
that may use any Cisco AnyConnect service. The exact number of Plus or Apex licenses should be based on the
that may use any Cisco AnyConnect service. The exact number of Plus or Apex licenses should be based on the
total number of unique users that require the specific services associated with each license type.
4. Ordering Information
All AnyConnect licenses are orderable in Cisco Commerce and are listed on the Global Price List (GPL).
A contract number will be generated for all subscription licenses as well as any perpetual license ordered with a
support contract. If you have an existing contract number, you may request that the new licenses be added to that
contract. You don’t have to generate a new contract number. If a new contract number is generated, you will need
contract. You don’t have to generate a new contract number. If a new contract number is generated, you will need
to obtain this contract number from your Cisco authorized reseller or account team.
Please follow the instructions in Section 6.1 for ensuring that the contract is linked to your Cisco.com
ID(s). If the contract is not linked, then you will not be able to download AnyConnect software or receive
technical support.
