What is the meaning of "Cisco ASAv - BYOL 4 NIC HA" ? Do we need to purchasing two vappliance for this ?

And what is difference between ASAV50S-STD and ASAV50S-STD-4

The ASAV50S-STD-4 is just a package where you buy four ASAv and get a little discount for that.

BYOL is "Bring your own license". When operating the ASAv in a cloud like AWS, you can buy the license from AWS or you can "bring your own license".

Thank you Iwen,

So if we have HA, we need to buy two license ryt ?

If you want to have HA in case of a host-failure or while updating/reloading the ASA, then you need two of these licenses.

Why would you aim for HA when using virtual ASA?

Why not relying on your hypervisor redundancy?
