Solved: ACE: which features are enabled by -> ACE-SEC-LIC-K9

Roble Mumin · ‎08-18-2009

Our latest ACE Pair is missing the Â ACE-SEC-LIC-K9 license.

Inquiry at our Distributor and Cisco resulted in the fact that this license is EOL/EOS.

Since i have that license installed in 4 other Datacenter Pairs running A2(1.3)i am not sure which feature will be missing now.

Or is that license a relict which actually does not activate any feature?

Anyone a clue or a doc which explains the features behind this license?

Thanks for reading

If I recall correctly it was a promotional license.

All the ACE-SEC-LIC-K9 features are now part of the base image on ACE.

You can verify the features by running "show license status"

If it shows 1000/ssl transactions/sec, 5 contexts and 4Gbps throughput then it provides same features as base image.

Hi,

Kindly refer the URL:

Customers of the Cisco ACE Application Control Engine are encouraged to migrate to Software Version ACE A2(1)

Hi Sachinga,

have you actually read what i wrote?

I posted the exact same link. And yes i'm running A2(1.3) which i posted as well.

Maybe this is a subtle approach to make me read the doc and end up with the conclusion it is not what i was looking for, again. :)

Thanks for the helpful answer Syed!

As we have 20 contexts, 5k ssl/sec and 8Gbps i shouldn't really miss it. :)
