Any Connect Phone License Question

[scooter817]

Hi Everyone

My director was approached by several mangers wanting to know would it be possible to let there people take there phones home and work. I've checked with our R/S engineer that manages the ASA and he verified that we have the current versions that we need. But I have a question about how many users can work from home based off of the screen shot that I've attached because I want to make sure if they send 100 people home they all will be able to connect and thanks in advance for the help.

Hello @scooter817, 

Based on the following documentation you need to have these two types of licenses on your ASA to enable Anyconnect VPN Phone

• AnyConnect Premium SSL License

• AnyConnect for Cisco VPN Phone License

The number of VPN connections (whether there are Phone or User) is given by the number of Anyconnect Premium Licenses.

Nevertheless, I would strongly suggest, if you have the suitable infrastructure to consider applying MRA (Mobile Remote Access), instead of Anyconnect VPN Phone, check below:
