ESAv subscription renew in 2022

[Aydin Ehtibarov]

Dears,

We are using ESAV C100v with inbound subscription (ESA-ESI-LIC=). Recently i found document "End-of-Sale and End-of-Life Announcement for the Cisco Email Product Bundles Under EMAIL-SEC-SUB and L-CES-SUB" where ESA-ESI-LIC= is mentioned under End-of-Sale Product Part Number. 

So, I would like to understand will i able to renew ESA-ESI-LIC= subscription for ESAV C100V in Dec 2022 and then Dec 2023 ?

I think the end of sale notice answers your questions pretty clearly - in case it wasn't clear the answer is NO!

thank you @Rich R 

Using Cisco commerce estimates i have checked CSEMAIL-SEC-SUB and options it pertains to find ESA-ESI-LIC= equivalent license. Previously available license "ESA-ESI-LIC=" was explained like "The Cisco Secure Email Inbound Essentials bundle delivers protection against email-based threats and includes antispam, graymail detection, Sophos antivirus solution, outbreak filters, and forged email detection." while CSEMAIL-SEC-SUB contain option Secure Email Gateway Essentials which offers "Cisco Secure Email Essential Inbound Malware Defense andANYL".  is it the same as old "ESA-ESI-LIC=" ? Where we can find the explanation for it ?

Thank you in advance
