Cisco 501 Licensing

[Rravelidc27]

Hey, I'm sure this is an old topic somewhere, but i've had some trouble finding an answer. I recently purchased a referb 501 PIX and was wondering if there was a way I could get a 10-50 user license. i know the EOL has passed, but i was wondering if anyone knew a way I could get one. I'm pretty sure i'll have as much as 15 users on his device. I mean if I use a router beneath it using NAT could i bipass that 10 user restriction (probs not just thought i'd ask.)

Is there a place that still sells these licenses?

Hi David,

To purchase the license for your PIX, please refer the below link:

www.cisco.com/go/license

This will require to have a PAK which i doubt you will have. Otherwise, if you have a contract you can open up a case with TAC licensing or call up cisco support for enquiries on that.

For details on how the user count is calculated, please refer the below discussion:
