Solved: Re: ASA 5520

I will order Cisco ASA5520-CSC10-K9, for Anti-X and the other services bundle.

My question is, i will order another one for Active/Standby config., i think i need to order the second one as the first one (same licenses and modules).

Does the ASA5520-CSC10-K9 support Active/Standby? if yes, do i need to order special license for this (I think this is not the security context license)?

You need to have a exact replica of the modules in your standby unit. There is no seperate license for failover in active/standby. if you need active/active, u might need to get a security context license. By default you anyway have 2 contexts built onto the ASA box.

hope this helps.. all the best. rate replies if found useful..
