ASA 5505 and SSC slots

[mauricioharley]

Friends,

What exactly will be available on the SSC slots for ASA 5505? What is their purpose? Which type of interfaces/services would we find on them?

I couldn't find any reference on Cisco's website.

Thanks,

Mauricio

In the Cisco ASA 5505, the expansion slot supports future add-on options. This capability enables small businesses to deploy firewall and VPN capabilities today, and add features in the future as their business grows and the security needs change.

Ok,

Which type of "future add-ons"? ASA 5505 suports itself VPN capabitilies without any CSC module, correct? So, what is the purpose?

Thank you.
