Hello
We ordered two new ASA firewalls and have them delivered. I received a Software License Claim Certificate that includes
Product Name : ASA5506 Control License
Entitlement Quantity : 1
PAK : xxxxxxxxxxx
PIN : xxxxxxxxx
When I power on my ASA and see, it has no Failover License. How do I obtain it?
Thank you.

Sorry I have missed the model number in your post. I see you are using ASA 5506.
Refer to the following document, you need to buy Security Plus License to enable HA (Active/standby), while HA (Active / Active) is not supported.

As @ngkin2010 correctly mentioned, you need the Security Plus license for an ASA 5506 to enable Failover for HA.
The Control license is for the base level functionality of the Firepower service module. It is a prerequisite for the other Firepower features which each require additional licensing (IPS, URL Filtering and Malware).
