In order to show the licenses installed on the ASA, use "show activation-key" or "show version". Mostly, you need to upgrade your licence as the default is two.
AnyConnect Premium Peers : 2 perpetual
I hope this helps. Good luck!

Version 8.0 is pretty old software for the ASA and there are reasons why you might want to upgrade the software. A code upgrade would be required for some of the advanced features of AnyConnect. But ASA8.0 is compatible with the basic functions of AnyConnect. Note that AnyConnect is a licensed feature and you will need to purchase a license to implement AnyConnect.
