My reseller says I need two licenses to get there. I need just the license to upgrade my existing hardware from base licenses to licenses supporting unlimited hosts and dual ISP's. I've found results that state the proper license as being " ASA5505-SEC-BUN-K9", but I thought this was the part number of the actual "hardware" with the unrestricted license installed. Additionally, my units do not support dual ISP links which I need.Įxactly "which" Cisco license do I need to upgrade from my base license to support unlimited inside hosts and to enable dual ISP links? This is when I discovered that my units have an "Inside Hosts" value of "10". I learned this the hard way when I put them into production and discovered random communications issues. I have two ASA 5505 appliances running base licenses. I've searched and searched and have found similar issues, but confusing answers.
