Hello all,

I have an issue with my ASA5505 in Security Plus license, as you can see below I still have a vlan limitation number as if my ASA still have Base License. Does anyone has ever seen this behavior ? Any idea to fix this problem ?

I already requested new Security Plus licenses but I still have this issue with it ...

Thanks for your help !

Have you made any changes to the activation key lately?

Can you please reload the ASA and see if you are having the same VLAN interfaces?

Also, can you share the output of "show activation-key" after the reload?

Thanks for your answer.

Have you made any changes to the activation key lately?

Hard to say, this ASA is in a LAB. I saw in ASDM 3 different License Activation Key (of course only one is active).

Can you please reload the ASA and see if you are having the same VLAN interfaces?

I already did this, and again I have the same number of vlans ... That's realy weird, and in fact I have 7 others ASA and 3 of them have this issue. For the other ones it's working well and I have all the options attached to the Security Plus licenses.

Do you think I need to reset completely these ASA ? I don't know if a hard-reset or something like that exist. This way, maybe all the old licenses will be flush and I could start from scratch.

Also, can you share the output of "show activation-key" after the reload?

I would suggest that you open a case with TAC to get the ASA licensing issue further investigated.

It was just a try to see if someone else ever had this kind of problem.

Thanks for your time.
