Hello AVC experts,
I want to use both NBAR2 discovery and NBAR2 QoS Classification&Marking on ASR 1000 routers running Advanced Enterprise Services (AES) IOS-XE 3.7.5. There are two questions I am not sure and need confirmation please.
1. Is AVC license included in AES?
2. How can I verify if my ASR has AVC license or not? (show license command does not work)
So far, here is what I found.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/ios-nx-os-software/network-based-application-recognition-nbar/qa_C67-723689.html
Q. Which license do NBAR users require to load protocol packs?
A. The NBAR2 users require the AVC (Application Visibility and Control) license on routers to load the protocol pack.
| Platform | Cisco IOS / IOS-XE Image | Default Protocol Pack |
| ISR-G2 | IP DATA Image (AVC License) | Advanced Protocol Pack |
| ISR-G2 (880 and 890) | Advanced IP Image (AVC License) | Advanced Protocol Pack |
| ASR1000 | Requires AVC Feature License. AVC license is supported with 1] Advanced IP Services (AIS) Image 2] Advanced Enterprise Image (AES) | Advanced Protocol Pack |

What licenses do I need licenses to run AVC?
AVC support is provided by Right-To-Use (RTU) license on both Cisco ASR 1000 and Cisco ISR G2
| Platform | Required license |
| ISR G2 (880 and 890) | Advanced IP license (advipservices) |
| ISR G2 | AX license |
| ASR1K | Advanced IP Services (AIS) or Advanced Enterprise Services (AES) license, and in addition, AVC license (FLASR1-AVC-RTU) |
Do I need AVC license if I want to use NBAR2 and QoS?
Yes, both NBAR2 and QoS are components of AVC to provide per-application bandwidth control
Thanks,
Cedar
