Anyconnect with IPSEC

[PAUL GILBERT ARIAS]

A customer has a 5505. According to the datasheet the limit of IPSEC sessions is 25 and the limit of anyconnect sessions is 25. Does that mean I can have 25 IPSEC tunnels and 25 Anyconnect tunnels at the same time? The customer needs at least 50 concurrent tunnels on his ASA. Am I understanding it correctly?

I was thinking the customer could pay for the anyconnect essentials license and connect his anyconnect clients to the ASA. Is that a good option to get the 50 concurrent clients connected?

[Karsten Iwen]

No, the platform-limit of the 5505 is 25 sessions. With the right license each of the 25 can be IPSec OR AnyConnect SSL OR AnyConnect IPSec.

For 50 simoultaneous connections you need at least a 5510 or 5512-X which both support up to 250 VPN-sessions.
