Understanding Security Manager Licensing
Licensing Examples
This section provides some representative licensing examples to help better understand Security
Manager licensing.
Manager licensing.
Example 1
Description of Managed Network: 15 Cisco Integrated Services Routers.
Required Licensing: Enterprise Standard-25 Device license is required. Since there are no Catalyst
6500 services modules involved and there are fewer than 25 devices, order Standard-25 license.
6500 services modules involved and there are fewer than 25 devices, order Standard-25 license.
Example 2
Description of Managed Network: 5 IDSM-2 modules, where each module has two virtual sensors.
Required Licensing: Ten licenses are required (10 virtual sensors split between five modules).
Although Standard-10 might appear to be sufficient, because a Catalyst 6500 services module is
involved, Professional-50 (PRO50) as a minimum is required.

Example 3
Description of Managed Network: 250 pairs of ASAs (500 devices) operating in failover mode.
Required Licensing: Professional-250 license. Alternatively, you could also order a
Professional-50 license or a Professional-100 license with suitable incremental (“add-on”) device
licenses. Incremental device licenses are available in increments of 50, 100, and 250 devices.

Example 4
Description of Managed Network: You have Security Manager Standard-25 device license, but
now you need to manage an additional 20 ASA devices operating in single-mode.

Required Licensing: Enterprise Standard-25 to Professional-50 Upgrade license is required.
Example 5
Description of Managed Network: 10 pairs of failover ASA devices (20 devices) deployed in a
combination of active/standby or active/active pairs, each has 5 security contexts.

Required Licensing: Enterprise Professional – 50 and Enterprise Professional Incremental 50

When deploying a pair of failover devices for redundancy, you only need to add the active devices
and contexts to Security Manager. As such the number of required device licenses is 10 device
counts x 5 contexts + 10 chassis for a total of 60 devices license.
