How to apply Security Plus license to ASA 5510

[spabbi100]

I am new to ASA appliances and have following question:

I have two ASA 5510 units, from show version command both shows

Hardware: ASA5510-K8

This Platform has base license.

I want to use both of these units in Active/Standby failover, and to do that i guess i need Security Plus license (as failover is NOT supported on ASA 5510 base model)

Do I need to buy Two Security Plus License to install on Both appliances or just one ??

Second Whats the steps/Process to obtain and apply this security license.

Thanks,

HI ..

Question 1.- Yes you need the secure plus licence on both ASAs.

Question 2.- You can go to http://www.cisco.com/go/license

you will need the Serial number of your ASAs and just follow the prompts. You can always contact Cisco TAC if you are not sure how to proceed.

I hope it helps .. please rate if it does !!!
