ASA5512 and IPS

James Hoggard

Hi,

We have bought a Cisco ASA5512 from our supplier which comes with the IPS and the license.

When i login using session ips command i get the following.

***LICENSE NOTICE***

There is no license key installed on this IPS platform.

The system will continue to operate with the currently installed

signature set.  A valid license must be obtained in order to apply

signature updates.  Please go to http://www.cisco.com/go/license

to obtain a new license or install a license.

Below is a show output.

Do i need to enter a key into the ASA or something to enable it?

Thanks

You must have the correct IPS device serial number because the license key only functions on the device with that number.
