Friends! Hello! I need an advice! I have ASA 5510. And I an have base license.
In future I need 1 GB port.(Today I have 4 port for 100 MB)
Is it right than if I will buy an Security Plus License - I will obtain an 2 1GB ports.
I have red it on cisco.com. Thank you!

That is true, with SecPLus,

That is true, with SecPlus, two of the interfaces can run with Gigabit. But I'm not sure if you still can buy the license. The ASA 5510 is approaching EOL and is also far away from being capable of handling gigabit traffic.

You'd better look for a replacement which could be an ASA 5508-X or 5516-X. Or the Cisco Meraki MX-84 is also a good device.

Thank you! Replacement - is

The license-code is L-ASA5510

The license-code is L-ASA5510-SEC-PL=

Although the ASA is End-of-Sale, the license is still listed in the ordering-portal. Ask your preferred Cisco reseller for it.

But again: It doesn't take long until there are no more security-updates for that box. And operating an unpatched security-device on the internet is a really bad idea.
