ASA 5505

Rick Pancratz

Can I utilize an ASA 5505 with base license for L2L VPN between remote location and data center in the event of WAN failure at remote site.   The remote location has 50 hosts.  The plan is to tunnel all traffic, including Internet, to data center if MPLS leg fails.   Will the base license support 50 hosts via IPSec tunnel?

Hi Rick,

ASA 5505, will not support 50 "concurrent" users. It can support maximum of 25 concurrent users....  and that to if you have sec plus license with it.

As business needs grow, customers can install a Security Plus upgrade license, enabling the Cisco ASA 5505 to scale to support a higher connection capacity and up to 25 IPsec VPN users, add full DMZ support, and integrate into switched network environments through VLAN trunking support. Furthermore, this upgrade license maximizes business continuity by enabling support for redundant ISP connections and stateless Active/Standby high-availability services.

Businesses can also extend the Cisco ASA 5505's VPN service by enabling AnyConnect client and clientless VPN remote access to support various mobile workers and business partners. The Cisco Secure Remote Access Solution deployments can scale to serve up to 25 AnyConnect and/or clientless VPN concurrent users on each Cisco ASA 5505 by installing an Essential or a Premium AnyConnect VPN license.

Hi rickp9786, do you already have the Cisco ASA5505 with you or are you looking at deploying one. I can check the part number that comes with the right license if that is the case. Feel free to message me directly.

Thanks,
