Mostly yes, with AnyConnect being an exception (assuming this is a modern version of ASA software).  Really old versions everything had to be identical.

 

Note if you are replacing an ASA in a failover pair they must both be identical models.

 

If you have had an RMA unit you should be able to use the RMA licence transfer tool to transfer the licences from the old ASA to the new ASA.

Models are identical.

Need to confirm from you with current output of ASA will license feature ok?

Can I delete the anyconnect license from the ASA which will be replacing the failed Primary?

Please confirm if Current Lic feature will work or not?

Also Current Sec Active ASA has old version 8.2.5

Current Sec Active has code 8.2 does all  licenses need to match in this code?

my primary asa has all same license except the new primary has anyconnect.

 

will it work?
