CISCO PIX SECURITY APPLIANCE LICENSING
The market-leading Cisco PIX Security Appliance Series supports a variety of licensing options, enabling businesses to
select the capabilities that are best-suited for their specific environment. Licensing options range from user-based licenses
on the Cisco PIX 501 Security Appliance to licenses for advanced capabilities, such as Active/Active failover, which are
available on specific Cisco PIX Security Appliance models.
This document describes the different types of licenses available, how licenses and activation keys are obtained, and what specific licenses are
supported on each model of Cisco PIX Security Appliances.
FOUR TYPES OF LICENSES PROVIDE BUSINESSES FLEXIBLE SECURITY SOLUTIONS
Cisco PIX Security Appliances support a variety of license types. These types include:
•
User licenses
•
Platform licenses
•
Feature licenses
•
Encryption licenses
User Licenses
Cisco PIX 501 Security Appliances, a popular security solution for Small Office/Home Office network environments, support User Licenses. This
license controls how many internal users (located on the inside network of a Cisco PIX Security Appliance) that can concurrently access the Internet,
or other resources through the outside interface of the appliance. Supported license levels include: 10 users, 50 users, and unlimited users. Cisco
Systems provides three different pre-configured bundles of the Cisco PIX 501 Security Appliance, making it easy for businesses to purchase an
appliance with the appropriate User License installed. Businesses can upgrade from one User License level to another, as their needs grow, by
purchasing the appropriate User License upgrade part number.
Platform Licenses
Cisco PIX 515, 515E, 525, and 535 Security Appliances support the concept of a Platform License. This license establishes what base capabilities
the appliance has—each Cisco PIX 515, 515E, 525, and 535 Appliance must have a single Platform License installed. License levels range from
Restricted (R), Unrestricted (UR), Failover (FO), and Failover-Active/Active (FO-AA). The table below outlines the capabilities that each of these
license levels provides:
