ASA 5585 ECDHE cipher support?

[jmorrison_bcp]

Does the ASA 5585 support ECDHE ciphers like ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384?

I get error message trying to enable them, and I don't see them available:

These ciphers were added in 9.4(1), but they are not active when the AnyConnect Essentials license is applied. Is that the case for your ASA?

[JOHN PAUL MORRISON]

Yes, anyconnect essentials is active.

So anyconnect disables it?

It looks bad on SSL scans mainly.

[Karsten Iwen]

Yes, but you should have AnyConnect PLUS licenses. Then you can replace your AnyConnect Essentials with AnyConnect PLUS. With just disabling it you lose your VPN-capabilities.

I know it's been three years but hoping you can still respond. I'm wondering whether to get the Anyconnect Plus or Apex license. According to the Anyconnect ordering guide, Suite B encryption algorithms are only supported in the Apex license. I don't see this listed for the Anyconnect Plus license.

Or does this mean the ciphers will be available in the "show ssl ciphers" but not usable with Anyconnect when using the Plus license?

Thanks
