FWSM multiple context without license

[hedyeh razazan]

Hi,

is it possible to configure FWSM in multiple context mode without "virtual FW licensing"? it seems without multiple context lisence FWSM support 2 context.

i need to know can i  use these two context and configure fwsm in multiple context mode and active/avtice failover?

thanks in advanced

Hi,

You can use active-active fail-over as long as you have the same license (or no license) on both FWSMs. Out-of-the-box you get 2 contexts + admin (which can also be used a filtering context).

You can issue

fwsm# sh activation-key

... you should have something similar:

Failover : Active/Active
........
Security Contexts : 2
