ASA Multicontext Licensing in Failover

ereyesm

Level 1

Hello:

I have two ASAs configured with Multicontext in failover (Active / Active), with the license for 10 Security Context in each device. When i apply a "Show Version" command, it shows:

 

Failover cluster licensed features for this platform:
Security Contexts : 20

 

The question is ¿Could i configure 20 diferent contexts in the bundle? And if one of the devices fails ¿does the other device takes the management of all those 20 contexts or i lose the management of 10?

Yes, you are entitled to all 20 contexts. If one of the units fail, you have up to 30 days to get that device back online.
